πŸ’– GLOGG(1) β€” like, the manual page bestie πŸ’–

okay so this is glogg(1) from the General Commands Manual and honestly? she's a little icon. she lets you interactively browse and search through a file πŸ¦‹ and we're gonna talk about her.


✨ NAME ✨

glogg β€” interactively browses and searches through a file πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

glogg [QT options]  [File]

πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

okay so real talk, this manual page is just a lil quick-and-dirty rundown of the glogg tool. it's not the whole story, it's the trailer. 🎬

bestie, this manual page was written specifically for the Debian distribution because the original program literally does not ship with a manual page. that's right, no cap. so for the comprehensive documentation β€” the full deep dive, the director's cut β€” please see:

/usr/share/doc/glogg/documentation.html

so what is glogg? she's a GUI application that helps you browse and search through long and complex log files. like when your log file is 4 million lines and your eyes are glazing over? that's her moment. main character energy fr fr. πŸ‘‘


✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay so this program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (-). a summary of options is included below, but for a full summary of options, just run:

glogg --help

now let's meet the flags, one by one 🫢

  • -h, --help β€” show summary of options. your girl is helpful like that.
  • -v, --version β€” show version of program. who is she? which build? find out. ⭐
  • -m, --multi β€” allow multiple instance of glogg to run simultaneously (use together with -s). yes, the multitasking queen. πŸ‘‘
  • -s, --load-session β€” load the previous session (default when no file is passed). she remembers where you left off, iconic behaviour.
  • -n, --new-session β€” do not load the previous session (default when a file is passed). fresh start, clean slate, new era. ✨
  • -d, --debug β€” increase the amount of debug information output by the program. the option can be specified several times to increase the amount further. stack 'em up, more -d = more tea being spilled πŸ“
