It seems to have trouble creating the files. Putting empty files there results in it dying with an error of "read past end of file". So, it seems, if I had a set of newly-created Logflash user files, I could use Logflash under Linux. Would anyone be willing to upload those files so that I and other Linux users can use them? BTW, I'd like to see Logflash in Python - I know someone else was mentioning that. I might even be able to contribute some Python code, though I'm not all that experienced in programming. Python is an easily-readable, cross-platform, free language that handles databases and complex data structures well, so it seems like the right tool for Logflash. -- Rob Speer
