c:\usr\local\projects\light_edit (/usr/local/projects/light_edit on Linux) directory. For example, light_edit is LIGHT_HOME:

Z:\> cd "c:\usr\local\projects\light_edit"

Z:\> light.bat (or ./light.bat in cygwin)

Light Log Viewer

Light Logs is a sub project of the light text editor. The light log viewer is a simple desktop application for viewing log files that are generated by a web server. But it may also be useful for viewing other text files. This application is especially useful for viewing logs generated by a J2EE Servlet container like the Apache Tomcat or a full J2EE Application Server like Weblogic or Websphere.
