Logs

The systemd journal, streamed from journalctl. It starts the first time the Logs screen is opened, with the last 200 entries.

  • Time: entries show the local time (HH:MM:SS); the detail view has the full date and UTC offset.
  • Severity: errors, warnings, informational and debug messages are styled differently.
  • Follow and pause: f follows new entries; Space pauses and resumes.
  • Search: / filters the entries.
  • Priority: v cycles the minimum priority: all, notice, warning, error.
  • Details: Enter shows the whole, multi-line message.

The screen keeps the last 2000 entries. Under a burst of messages, entries that cannot be taken in time are counted as dropped rather than piling up, and reading the journal never holds up the keyboard.
