Messing with logfiles before Hobbit sees them
Shire folk:
I have a log file that I need to pass through a filter before Hobbit reviews it. I know I can simply some up with some "tail -f | filter > updated.file" kludge. Is there a way to get Hobbit to do this when it reads the file? Any ideas?

Why not just use the ignore feature to have hobbit filter out the things that you dont want it to see?
Can bbwin report OS and version number in next release ?
hobbit unix client can achieve by output of "uname" .

I am sorry, I should have been more clear. Instead of using the word "filter" in my example, I probably should have used the word "expander." The little app turns cryptic messages in the log into longer, human-readable messages -- this is what I would like to post to Hobbit.
