Hello,
I recieve my logs in a format that need to be altered to work with Analog.
Spcifically, I'm talking w3c format and I run a perl script to convert
1)'# Field' -> '#Field'
2)'User Agent' -->'User-Agent'
When I do this analog works great, if I don't it can't read the log files.
However, due to the complexities of the system I'm working on I'd like to
know if I can edit (or customize) analog to automatically read my log files
without modification. Any ideas?
Thanks again!!
Eric
