If we aren't going to live with that, then I think we need two filtering points, because I, for one, don't want to pay the cost of formatting numbers etc just to throw the message away because I'm not viewing

Why can't we format on-demand?
[Joe] Oh, we certainly can. Unless I misunderstand you, wouldn't you then be limited to filtering out text things? For example, if I wanted to see the log lines with a "blotto 3" in them, you would have some problems, wouldn't you? Now, don't get me wrong, personally I don't see the point of filtering that kind of thing at the log level. There are plenty of tools that can scan the resultant log files and pull that info out for me. I only need a level (TRACE, LOG, WHATEVER) and a keyword of some sort. Anything more than that, I am willing to do outside the app with grep or something. joe
