Re-design of the Text-Analysis Tool

[vincentanalik]

Hi David, thanks for the text analysis tool. It helped me a lot in my current job analyzing android logs.

There were a couple of features I wanted added to the logs. I got some time and did some redesign of the software from scratch using WPF. In addition to the current functionality of the text analysis tool:

• I added support for multi-tab functionality. You can open multiple logs in different tabs. Also, there is support to drag multiple files and have them open up in different tabs. And easily apply a single filter file to all the tabs
• In addition, I added multi-tab search functionality. You can search all the open tabs using a keyword or regular expression.
• Since I primarily work on android devices, I added support to connect to android devices using adb and continually sync the live logs with filters applied to focus on the important logs.
• In addition, I added more than 200 colors to pick for the filter

There are a couple other cool functionalities I added to the software. I can share some screenshots or demo. Please let me know when you get a chance, I would like to contribute. Thanks.

That sounds awesome, congratulations! At present, the source code is being kept private so there isn't anywhere I can point you at to contribute. Also, the implementation is completely WinForms due to the age of the tool, rather than WPF like you (very reasonably) chose. So I'm not sure there's a good path toward integrating your changes here. However, I'd absolutely encourage you to share what you did with others because I'm sure they'll find it useful as well!

Okay, I understand. Thanks David.
