I'm not sure what you mean. It only removes two types of lines:
1. Lines that have a [Label] at the start corresponding to one that isn't ticked in the table (if you untick 'Area' it removes all [Area] lines);
2. Any lines before the first one with a [Label] at the start.
An example for point two would be putting in the following text:
| Code: | personally, I think it smells a bit
but I didn't want to say anything.
Fri Dec 23 23:27:38 2005 [Area] KingCAW: no, 28 dsays
Fri Dec 23 23:27:40 2005 [Faction] d4sh: oh me me me
Fri Dec 23 23:27:41 2005 [Area] KingCAW: or days even
Fri Dec 23 23:27:45 2005 [Faction] coralee: ummm count me in
Fri Dec 23 23:27:47 2005 [Faction] RockyB: ah, and Gysha |
In that case the first two lines (plus all lines with nothing on them, of course) would disappear.
What sort of content are you talking about? I suppose I could remove all lines written by someone in a list, but anything other than that...?

I was hoping it could detect lines such as "has just come online" or "is in the matrix"
Those still get included as system chat *actions*

It would take me a while to work out patterns for the considerable number of such actions, and then I'd have to create a large (not to mention ugly) table giving people the option to remove those lines or leave them in.
Don't count on it happening any time soon.

cool.
Oh and for some reason, while formatting the logs from our spying on the General. The filters just wouldnt apply a color to his name. I'm not entirely sure why though.

Ah, I did wonder why his name wasn't coloured.
I know why: his name had a space at the end, and the script doesn't take account of that. That's a more immediate concern, so expect it to be fixed soon.

This is really starting to annoy me now. Is there any way of increasing the character limit to at least 250,000? This is the third time I've had to split my logs in hald to format them.

Well, we haven't experienced any performance issues from bouts of uberformatting, so I've increased the limit.

Cheers Proccy Boy. Now all you need to do is get rid of that damn flood limit on the forums

I'm not getting rid of that. Have to find the character limit for posts. It must be hardcoded, so I'll have to scour the source for it. *Sighs.*
Edit: Actually, it was the database's fault. Damn field was set to 'text' instead of 'longtext'. It'll be much better now.

Could a filter be put in to only utilise certain names.
Ie. Zampano, Leelia, D4sh and RockyB are having a conversation in area chat but some random Zion muppets come along with l33t speak and begin teh flooding. But chat log formatter would remove all BUT Zampano, Leelia, D4sh and RockyB.
If its possible then Leelia (Carsten) would be more than happy to look at the source code and implement it if you don't have the time.

Ooh, good suggestion. I was thinking along the same lines the other day.
Might be better to have a filter to exclude certain names though.

There could be an option to do either. I'm pretty sure the idea's come up before, though. Certainly I've thought of it.
Anyway, you'll have to wait until I've got some other programming out of the way. And I always develop software by myself, primarily to keep the legalities simple.

hmm, that too. Though for events such as last nights, where you only want to keep the important stuff, a person specific filter could be more useful. Both would be nice

Could you also possibly implement a setting to let it assign colors to the names automatically? I can never remember the hex codes for the colors (that's why my logs are haven't been colored)
