</span> Do you mean -log_summary which is just one very specific output of logging data or do you mean tools like PetscLogView_Detailed[] etc.<br>
<br>
I don't think people should be parsing the output of -log_summary I think they should be writing there own viewers that dump the information in the way they want it (an example of this is PetscLogView_Detailed)</blockquote><div><br></div><div>I mean adding it to the Python module output (I think that is 'detailed')</div><div><br></div><div> Matt</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

We were generating many summaries using a Python script, which then read them back in as modules and processed the results. We could not automatically get things like the error, which had to be parsed from the output.<br>
