[Feature Request] Ability to listen on a socket and grep it #134

Open HappyHamster opened 5 years ago

Would be great to have GrepConsole listen on a socket and be able to grep whatever comes in. I can then redirect log4j2 output to this socket.

Also would be great to be able to create arbitrary Grep windows and THEN point them to what needs to be watched/grep'ed. This way I can create several windows pointing to the same socket and grep same input with different filters/rules.

Idea is to be able to "split" one continuous log output into several logical "views", same http related errors and NPE in separate Intellij windows without having to mess with log4j appenders.

I like the idea, but it seems like quite a bit of work for something I will never use.
