argus-eye GUI

[carter at qosient.com]

Hey Phil,
This is great!!!   We already have a curses based tool for reading files, near real-time streams, which supports our aggregation strategies, etc ....,  its called ratop().

If that could help you with your GUI, I would recommend that you take a look!!!!
I have a version that makes argus data look like the screens from the Matrix, also curses based, that I can share.

Subject: [ARGUS] argus-eye GUI

Hi,

I've started a GUI for argus in Perl/Gtk2.

current features are:
* read data from one or many argus logfiles
* display transaction data in colored table
* sorting and reordering of columns possible
* basic display filter usage

planned features:
* serious tool
* bells and whistles

I'll release GPL'ed code within the next few weeks after major cleanups and
implementation of display filter parser. Currently it's a mess of just 500 lines
proof-of-concept...

Please let me know if there is already ongoing work for a GUI or if you have
other suggestions.


Cheers, Phil
