(not an issue) Need some tips to extract information from binlog file #617

Hello,

Thank you for your awesome project, /bl is a life saver!

I wrote a very basic binlogger based on yours to retrieve some build information, timings, messages, etc. But I want to deprecate it and use yours then programmatically extract the information I need.

Is it possible for me to extract information about project build time, solution build time, and error messages? I've looked at this, but i'm not sure how to get, i.e: error message from a build or event all the runtime of each target of a build.

Could you share some tips? Thanks!

Plug. If you think your feature can be helpful to others, then consider contributing to binlog viewer itself.
