Title: Logcleaner
Post by: Velh Krome on April 15, 2008, 06:42:26 am

Greetings...
A little script that helps cleaning logfiles, according to an example as follows:

Code: [Select]

(23:44:11) Thief steps up close to Crafter and looks over her shoulder "Oh, I guess I saw something interesting here... hm..", while he tries to dive his hand into Crafters bag discretely
(23:44:19) Crafter counts the coins and drops them inside her purse
(23:44:33) Crafter tells you: [roll?]
(23:45:09) You tell Crafter: [you say o/]
(23:45:11) Crafter tells group: Player Thief has joined the group!
(23:45:15) >Player Crafter has rolled a 10-sided die for a 10.
(23:45:21) Thief says: [-.-]
(23:45:2Cool >Player Thief has rolled a 10-sided die for a 6.
(23:45:43) Crafter eyes down to Thief catching his move "Shortie?"
(23:46:11) Crafter stretches her back and grabs the hilts of her swords
(23:46:12) Someone reaches for his hammer, eyeing Thief

Code: [Select]

Someone reaches for his hammer, eyeing ThiefThanks to the sidux-user CaesarTjalbo who authored, and Noriin who hosts. The code is under gpl.v3 and can be found here (http://www.cyanureill.net/mindseye/files/ps_logcleaner.tar.gz). "ps_logcleaner -h" shows up helping information, moving it to /usr/(local/)bin may provide comfortability.

Nice script however, shame we can't make it run in windows

Argh.. since initially I had issues to create this post ("Forbidden.."), I finally had luck with this quite cut one.

Unfortunately a question got cut too:
Its a pie-thon-script: Anyone knows if there are ways to use it on Windows- or Mac-Systems?

edit:
Neko, when I try to spell "pie-thon" with a "y", it will show me that "Forbidden"-page  ::|

As it's Pie-thon you should be able to install Pie-thon from pie-thon.org (installers for Win & OSX if correct spelling) and just run it. The joy of interpreted languages :)

I too received the Forbidden page if I used the normal spelling

Ah, pleasant news, thanks Tym o/
Do you know how would it work? Perhaps like having it like an "installed console" you could type in the same command for the script?

PS:
Oh, and for "pie-thon" problem, Neko said it would probably be an issue of smf-forums in general. I just intented to let him know about the harmful consequences this particular word can have lol

Usually you can just run

Code: [Select]

> pie-thon file.py
to run any pie-thon prog, the .py is optional so the script should work as is.

I assume you will need to run from a console as I don't think the installs come with a special console app, but from the general instructions in the script just open a console in the directory where the log file is located and run

Code: [Select]

> pie-thon ps_logcleaner -f name_of_your_log_file
this will create a name_of_your_log_file.processed file for you reading comfort and pleasure.
