Having this page called, select the log level you wish to see the entries for, using the drop-down. Optionally, you may chose to display all "higher priority" as well, where "higher" means the entries on top of the one you selected. |

| | 13 | You now can further restrict the amount of lines displayed: the ''Tail'' input works similar to the `tail -f` shell command, only showing the last N lines. If you input nothing here, this restriction is skipped, but if you do, the following search will be limited to these lines. In the ''Search'' input box you can enter a term which must be found in a line to be displayed. You can also use regular expressions here, in which case you must check the corresponding button. If you additionally check the "not" button, that search will be inverted, ie only lines ''not'' containing/matching your search term will be shown. |

| | 23 | As you can see, the log lines are quite colorful: each log level has its distinct color assigned. If you like to change the choice of colors here, you can easily apply your own style sheets. All elements can be identified without problems: the different log levels use classes, and even the other elements of the GUI use classes and ids. Furthermore, in this example you might note that obviously nothing was logged at "Info" level. |
