|
|
full debug log output. This is extremely helpful for bugreports and

2011-12-10 06:27:40 -05:00
|
|
|
figuring out what is going on, without permanently logging to a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With i3-dump-log, you can dump the SHM log to stdout.

|
The -f flag works like tail -f, i.e. the process does not terminate after
|
|
|
|
dumping the log, but prints new lines as they appear.
