Hi !

Since a lot of small things for the new version have been discussed
here (like the memory leak in the GtkText widget in 1.0.4) I just
wanted to drop a note that the new version of my Xlogmaster program
has been released. Here is the official announcement: 

- ------------------------------------------

The Xlogmaster is a X11 program to allow comfortable and fast monitoring
of all logfiles and every device that allows it's status being read by
cat (like the /proc devices).

It is a very useful tool for all programmers, system administrators,
control freaks or people who just like to know exactly what's going on
on their system. The program has been written under Linux but it
should also compile on other UN*X systems.

_CHANGES_:
- - - *The Xlogmaster is now a GNU program*
- - - Background log watching with lots of poossibilities
- - - Audio support
- - - Better configuration & handling

(There have been a lot of changes between 1.2.2 and 1.4.1 so I have 
tried to give the most important ones)


_Features_:
- - - Filters to raise/lower/hide lines
- - - Filters to alert/notify/uniconify/execute on lines in logfiles (even
	background ones)
- - - Audio notification for alert/notify/uniconify
- - - TAIL mode (basically emulating a "tail -f file")
- - - CAT mode (basically emulating a "cat file" in reglar intervals)
- - - scrolling back in the logs with a scrollbar (size of buffer
      adjustable by user)
- - - all defaults can be overridden by commandline
- - - completely menu driven, fully customizable
- - - style can be custom modified to perfectly blend in with your desktop


_Primary Site_:
        ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/


_Secondary Site(s)_:
        http://www.fusebox.hanse.de/xlogmaster/
        http://porter.desy.de/~greve/xlogmaster/


_Homepage_:
        http://www.gnu.org/software/xlogmaster/xlogmaster.html


_Requirements_:
- - - X11 Window System
- - - C++ compiler
- - - GTK+ Toolkit Version >= 1.0.5


_Platforms_:
- - - GNU/Linux
- - - Solaris
- - - Irix5.3 (MIPS R4000)
- - - FreeBSD
- - - x86 BSDI 3.0

(these are the tested ones - there is no real reason why the
xlogmaster shouldn't compile on all Unix platforms, though)

- ------------------------------------------

I have already added it to the GTK+ repository.

Later,
	Georg
