    Why would I ever use a text editor? I think our approaches to viewing logs are fundamentally different.

      Well the original comment I responded to said

      It’s not the binary. It’s that the logs it writes are in binary so can’t be read without a program.

      Of course, a text editor is also a “program”, but I assumed they were saying they preferred plain text logs.

      If you aren’t agreeing with them then you need to state your position more clearly when you hop in.
