Multipurpose Log Filter: About

The purpose of the program is to quickly filter large line based logs based on regular expressions. It will hopefully allow people to quickly parse logs for interesting information.

The program's filters are user defined (with reg exp) but I plan on making small bundles of filters for people who want them but don't fancy learning reg exp. The filters consist of several regexp rules and documents are sequentially (priority) filtered based on the rules. The rules themselves can either add matching lines to the parsed pool or delete the lines. This will enable users to make pretty advanced filters by for example filtering out a specific type of a pattern before including all other lines of that pattern.

I'm currently focusing on making the filter bundles. Any suggestions about what filters I should make are welcome, please contact me.
