Looks good, Wim!  I even like the blur effect. ;)  I just used it to view a
log file here at work.  I hope Vigilog supersedes the now-defunct Apache
Chainsaw [1].

Question for you: How tightly coupled is the GUI from the rest of the code
in vigilog?  As others on this mailing list have pointed out, it would be
awesome if we could have a set of IDE plugins for Logback, and it would be
even better if we could use the hard work you've already done for Vigilog?

Thanks, and happy Monday! =)
