Configurable

colors, keyboard shortcuts, column layouts, you name it...

Mac OS X only

specifically tailored to be used with Xcode...

Designed for me

I made it for myself and it works for me. But it might be useful for you as well...

common data structures and types are automatically highlighted:

you can colorize messages manually by using a simple markup format:

log messages are displayed in a hierarchy:

metadata is displayed in seperate columns:

Simultaneously receive logs from multiple applications on different devices
Zero Configuration:
uses Bonjour to automagically connect to clients in the local network

configurable color theme:

open the source file in Xcode where the
currently selected message was issued:

instead of using a keyboard shortcut you can
do the same by clicking on the file name:

I made klogger mainly to debug applications on the iPad.
But there might be other use cases for it:

Networked applications

I can imagine that it would be really usefull if you are developing a multiplayer game
or any other application that communicates over the network.

OSC applications

If you are writing an application that communicates over OSC,
you might use klogger to debug or just monitor the OSC messages that are sent.

Open Source

You need a special feature or don't like something?
It's open source, so go ahead and change it ☺
