Sawmill automatically detects all of these formats, and arranges your profile options intelligently based on your log format. If your format is not supported, we can created it for a fee. If you're interested in having us create the plug-in, please send a sample of your log data (1 Meg is ideal, but anything more than ten lines will do) to support@sawmill.net and we will send a quote. Alternately, you can create your own plug-in; see Creating Log Format Plug-ins (Custom Log Formats).
