ccze a few days ago, while looking for something else. And suddenly my console experience has become more richer and fruitier ;) Like me, if you too (like to) spend more time on the console, and like a little bit of colour, you will love ccze.Your distro might be different. On gentoo:
$ eix -v ccze
[I] app-admin/ccze
Available versions: 0.2.1-r3^t ~0.2.1-r4^t
Installed versions: 0.2.1-r3^t(17:46:13 11/08/17)

Description: A flexible and fast logfile colorizer# emerge app-admin/ccze
$ man ccze
NAME
ccze - A robust log colorizer
SYNOPSIS
ccze [options] <logfile
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the ccze utility, which is a drop-in replacement for colorize, but written in C, to be faster and less resource-hungry. The goal was to be fully backwards compati‐
ble, yet superior with respect to speed and features.Above descriptions describe ccze as intended for logfiles. But I have been using it for almost everything, and it takes whatever I have thrown at it.
Browsing
syslog seems almost pleasurable now ;) I have thrown dmesg into ccze. Even ls looks so much better. Compare these below:
Even boring docs come to life :) Browsing is now much quicker and more richer.
