Allow multiple log files inputs #2

Probably something like:

$ python logl.py log1 log2 log3

Is it ok for the program to take in all these logs but handle them one at a time, one after the other? Would there be a benefit to having it handle the logs concurrently?

kchodorow commented 12 years ago

I think it would be fine to have it parse the logs one-at-a-time.

kchodorow commented 12 years ago

Thought of one case where it would be useful to have multiple logs processed simultaneously: if we want to run this on a live cluster, continuously, as the logs are being written. However, we're not set up to do that yet, anyway. Just something to keep in mind for the future.
