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.

@phil_PICS: The -A option. ccze uses ncurses by default, and the screen's cleared when doing son. With -A, it will use direct ANSI escape sequences, which is less portable, but doesn't clear the screen.
Hi! CCZE is great for viewing logs, but when I use it to colorize the output from a command -- say 'mvn install' -- the colorization happens, but when the mvn program exits, the entire view disappears. What option should I be using to prevent this from happening?
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.
