Chainsaw log viewer config

[TothJ]

Does anyone using chainsaw to read jira logs? how to configure Jira to produce log for chainsaw? (Jira is running on different machine than I want to read the log on).

This is way after the fact, but unless you can get JIRA to emit XML-formatted log files, I don't think it's possible/practical. I use Logsaw, which works well enough, and NTail when I need to follow a log file live. The first lives in a standalone Eclipse interface, the latter as a view in an Eclipse editor perspective.

Thanks!
