The Logfile Navigator (https://lnav.org), a logfile viewer for the terminal. Started it in 2006 and have used it most every day since to view the logs of whatever software I was working on at the time.


Great that you are using it for so long. Dogfooding is great for improving a product.

The Automatic Log Format Detection, Query using SQL and Headless Mode features seem quite useful, apart from lnav itself!


Just want to thank you for such a great tool! I use it everyday when developing locally.
