colorize(1) - Linux man page

Name

colorize - A robust log colorizer

Synopsis

colorize [options]<logfile

Description

This manual page documents briefly the colorize utility.

colorize is a short (no, it's not short anymore :) perl script to colorize your logs. You can even use syslog-ng to redirect all logs to the script and colorize them on the fly!

Options

These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes ('-'). A summary of options is included below.

-f, --file output: Print output to output instead of standard output.
-F, --rcfile rcfile: Specify an initialization file to read instead of /etc/colorizerc and ~/.colorizerc
-h, --html: Generate output in HTML format.
--nocss: Don't use cascanding style sheets for HTML output. This can be used when the program you want to use to view the output doesn't support cascading stylesheets (like some mailers).
-b, --bgcolor color: Set the color color as the background color for HTML output. The given value should be a valid HTML color reference, like "#ff0000" or "red".
-C, --convert-date: Convert unix timestamp to readable date format (in oops and squid log example).
-r, --remove-facility: syslog-ng paste the facility level before log messages, with this switch you can cut these strings off.
--help: Show summary of options and exit.
-V, --version: Show version of program.
