I have started creating a Log Viewer addon to view log-files in XBMC. It is mainly to view log-files quickly, i.s.o. going to a ssh-session to view logs (like on a Raspberry Pi).
There is already a XBMCLogViewer addon available (see this thread: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...=logviewer), but I also want to view other logs on the system.
So I started this addon:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmc-logviewer/

For now it has these features:

• Add log-files to the (favorite) list
  
• View these log-files in reversed order or normal (reversed = show last log line first)
  
• Remove a log-file from the (favorite) list
  

Possible features to come:

• Automatically update the log window when the viewed log file changes (e.g.: like tail -f)
  
• Have a service check a log file for specific keywords (like: failed, error, ...) and report (via a popup) when a new keyword is found (like a log file watcher)

Just to tell that I have one similar addon long time ago:

Yes, I know.
I thought that this thread was about the same addon... Apparently not!
I installed and checked out your addon, but it didn't work out for me. I mainly want to view other logs on the system, not just the XBMC log.
