Release Notes: This release has support for transparency and background colors in the raw ANSI output mode. The documentation has been updated a little, and various bugfixes applied all over the place.


Release Notes: This release features a raw ANSI output method, which adds support for scrollback and allows one to send CCZE to the background - neither of which was possible with curses. Support for colorizing Pure-FTPD's CLF and Stats log formats was added.


Release Notes: A new coloriser for proftpd logs, some bugfixes, and some new features in the plug-in system.


Release Notes: Support has been added for passing arguments to the plugins. Although none of the default plugins support arguments, two separately maintained ones already do. Some formatting bugs, both in the documentation and in CCZE output, were fixed.


Release Notes: This version adds a new colorizer for distccd.log files, and is ported to Cygwin and Tru64.

After quite a few years of neglecting the project, I'm working on a new version. I will not continue the old code, but will start anew.
This, however, will take a while.

Will we be seeing a newer ccze anytime soon? I would love to see conntrack log colouring and netfilter logs from -j LOG. Also a how to make your own plug-ins.

Handy tool.
This is one of those little utilities you can do without, but once you use it - you won't want to ever be without it.
