Thanks for the quick response! I pulled down your custom build and it's definitely fixed some things (notably the "please load a config file" intro screen), but I'm still not getting it.
I pointed chainsaw at the config file you posted on SO but it didn't seem to cause chainsaw to do anything (no recievers defined, zeroconf still did nothing). After that I tried opening the log file but it wouldn't open. When I switched the logging format back to XMLLayout chainsaw could manually open it, but it still didn't tail. Could the not tailing be related to the XML format? Is there a more tail-friendly format that will open? On an unrelated note, in the new version the horizontal resizing (of the recievers pane and the pane on the other side) seems to be broken, it's not really a problem, just a heads up. --M@ On Fri, May 10, 2013 at 11:48 AM, Scott Deboy <scott.de...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks for posting to the dev list! > > I've commented on your stackoverflow post.
