| <h2><a name="Introduction"></a>Introduction</h2> |
| <p>Welcome to the home of Apache Chainsaw™ v2!</p> |
| <p>Chainsaw v2 is a companion application to Log4j written by members of the Log4j development community. Like a number of Open Source projects, this new version was built upon inspirations, ideas and creations of others. Chainsaw v2 has it's roots from the original Chainsaw utility written by Oliver Burn, and with inspiration from the Log Factor 5 utility contributed by ThoughtWorks Inc. </p></div> |

| <ul> |
| <li>Standalone -.sh/.bat</li> |
| <li>OS X 'native' distribution (uses Java still, but looks like a real OSX application)</li></ul> |

| <h2><a name="So_what_is_it_really"></a>So what is it really?</h2> |
| <p>It's a GUI-based Log viewer. A picture tells a thousand words...</p><img src="images/chainsaw-1.jpg" alt="Screenshot" /> |
| <p>These screen shots were taken on Mac OS High Sierra.</p> |
| <p>Rather than rely on a combination of tail/grep/vi or equivalent to view/query/trace-through a huge trail of logging events, you can use Chainsaw. </p> |
| <p>Chainsaw can read local and ssh-reachable regular text log files, as well as log files formatted in Log4j's XMLLayout. Chainsaw can also receive events over TCP and UDP, read events from a DB, and can process events generated by java.util.logging.</p></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="Tutorial_and_User_Manual"></a>Tutorial and User Manual</h2> |
| <p>Chainsaw already includes help with with a Quick Reference and a Tutorial to get you started, all viewable from within the GUI!</p></div> |
