Chainsaw can process events from multiple log files. Chainsaw requires its own configuration file that provide receiver definitions - separate from the config files that provide appender definitions. To process multiple log files, create multiple 'plugin' sections in Chainsaw's config file - on

If your Chainsaw config file includes an appender, the appender will process events received by Chainsaw (for example, a fileAppender hooked up to Chainsaw would write any events received by Chainsaw to the log file, and you probably don't want that to happen).. For Chainsaw to read log files,
