You can configure Chainsaw to use an org.apache.log4j.varia.LogFilePatternReceiver to process non-xml log files.
There is also org.apache.log4j.chainsaw.vfs.VFSLogFilePatternReceiver, which extends LogFilePatternReceiver's capabilities by supporting the file systems available via the Apache Jakarta Commons VFS project (including SSH). These are both available from the Web Start deploy of Chainsaw, although you'll have to add the external jars needed by the VFS receiver to the $user.dir/.chainsaw/plugins directory (and bypass the security manager through Chainsaw' app preferences). You can view an example receiver configuration from Chainsaw's Welcome tab.
