  To View a Summary of Events in a Raw Log
    1. Select a raw (unformatted) log file.  (File Menu -> "Select Raw")
       The current log file ends in ".cur", e.g. "log1.raw.cur".
       You do not have to switch logs.

    2. View the summary of the selected log file. (View Menu -> "Raw Summary")

  To Format a Raw Log

    1. Set the format filter for the types of entries you want to see.
       (Filters Menu -> "Format").  To see all entries, skip this step.

    2. Format the raw log file. (File Menu -> "Format Raw")

    3. Display the formatted file. (View Menu -> "Formatted Log")

    4. To further narrow the entries displayed, set a display filter.
       (Filters Menu -> "Display" -> "Formatted")

  For more information, use the on-line help (Help Menu -> "General help").
