RegExTractor is a tool for Microsoft Windows. It's main purpose is to generate structured xml files from mostly unstructured application log files. For example, these xml files could be processed within Microsoft Excel (or Libre Office Calc) to generate graphical reports about the frequency of a special log entry, maybe a special error message.
The logs are split by regular expressions you have to provide. Each match will result in a new tag in the xml result file.
User documentation is still growing but I've created some quick tutorials:
Getting Started - Part 1
Getting Started - Part 2
Remark: You will need knowledge about regular expression and xsl transformation in order to use RegExTractor. A use case how to create a diagram like the one enough you can find here:
