glogg
glogg is a free, open-source log file viewer for macOS and Linux designed for developers and system administrators. It specializes in searching, filtering and visualizing large text log files with syntax highlighting, regular expression support, and a two-pane interface that shows search results alongside the full log context. It is particularly useful for analyzing application logs, server logs, and debug output where manual inspection of thousands of lines would be impractical.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about glogg's Apple Silicon support status or current development status. Given the September 2028 deadline when Rosetta 2 will be removed from macOS, you should contact the glogg project (check the GitHub repository at github.com/nickbnf/glogg or the project's official site) to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned or already available. If the project appears inactive or abandoned, consider alternatives like lnav (Log Navigator), another open-source log viewer that is actively maintained and has confirmed native Apple Silicon support, or TextSoap, a commercial log analysis tool with native builds. Acting now will give you time to migrate before macOS 28 ships in September 2028.
