How to breeze through the startup process log using new tools in Consolation 3.
log
Filters are here: Consolation can now apply simple text filters, or regular expressions (regex) to refine your log browsing.
Make your log browsing more colourful, and as a result far easier to read.
Let Consolation 3 colour your log extracts: it makes a huge difference in reading and understanding them.
Now adds your own output styles to custom predicates, so that you only view the log information that you want.
Design your own predicate filters, and apply them almost instantly: a significant new feature in this first test release.
A helping hand for those who run in normal user mode and cannot access log contents as a result.
Want to write to Sierra’s log from a language or app which doesn’t give easy access? Use this free tool which now writes anything you want.
Looking forward to the new features in Consolation version 3. Please comment and make suggestions.
Several bugs and issues in the log command will not result in errors, but will misleadingly return no log entries when used in search predicates.
