While this isn't new, it's good to know, if you're looking through logs in Console in search of information. Or, if you simply want to save this information in a text file, you can do this: syslog -C > /Desktop/console.log. You can also run this command to save these entries in a file, then view them in vim: syslog -C > /tmp/console.log view /tmp/console.log. Just type the following command to enable colorized output for the ls command: export CLICOLOR 1 better add to your /.bashrc or /.bashprofile echo 'export CLICOLOR1' > /. I found a forum thread from 2008 which explains that you can see what used to be in console.log by running syslog -C in Terminal. LSCOLORS The value of this variable describes what color to use for which attribute when colors are enabled with CLICOLOR. If you use GNU Screen, you might need to add maptimeout 0 to your /.screeenrc.

I had to set the following in my /.vimrc to make it as fast as GVim: set timeoutlen1000 set ttimeoutlen0. I was doing some research today for an article, and wondered where that file went, and how one could view it, since the full system.log contains so many entries that it can be hard to wade through. When I first started using Vim inside a terminal (rxvt-unicode), I noticed that it took a while for Vim to respond to my keystrokes. Those messages are still recorded, but when you view logs in Console, you can't see them on their own. Install Vim Vundle - is a package manager just like pip add the below line within.

But all the terminals including native Terminal.app on Mac OS X 10.6.1 can scroll only 120 lines in 10 seconds.

As a comparison data point, I can scroll 300 lines in 10 seconds when I use putty on windows. When Leopard came around, this file was removed, and the system-wide logging system (ASL) replaced it. But all of these terminals along with native Mac OS Terminal.app suffer the same slowness while scrolling down a file in vim editor. Back in the day, prior to Leopard, there was a console.log file, which contains errors and messages for the current user's account.
