[emacs] log4j-start-filter

Sometimes ago I cited a cool mode for emacs: log4j-mode. Since I started useing it just for “syntax hilight”, I’ve discovered a very cool macro: log4j-start-filter.

I had the needs to filter an application log file (30Mb growing) in which many applications is logging. I’ve not decided this, so don’t hang up with me .

Well just typing M-x log4j-start-filter <my-list-of-keywords-space-separated> RET and automagically the file is showing only what I need. I can’t live without this functionality.

The counterpart of this macro is M-x log4j-stop-filter.

[emacs] .emacs updated

I’ve updated my .emacs file adding the support for log4j-mode and disabling the font-lock-maximum-size variable.
