+Logtool is a command line program that will parse syslog (and syslog-
+like) logfiles into a more palatable format. It will take anything
+resembling a standard syslog file (this includes syslog-ng, and
+probably most of the other variants out there), and crunch it into one
+of the following formats for your viewing pleasure:
+
+ - ANSI (colorized for easy "at a glance" viewing)
+ - ASCII (for e-mail'ed reports, and term's that don't support color)
+ - CSV (for importing into your favorite spreadsheet/database)
+ - HTML (for generating web pages)
+ - RAW (for no good reason)
+
+It can be configured to parse the data any one of several ways,
+including stripping the host, and/or program fields, and modifying the
+time display format of the log entry's.
