The package is available in Alpine so I tried it out. It seems to work best if the terminal is using en_US.UTF-8. My default is C but I have a function to set UTF-8. I was curious if it could handle stdin and it does. It saves the output in ~/.config/lnav/ something to probably add to my clean up script. It is convenient that it can prepend timestamps to logs. I could see this being nice for people that do QA on build logs all day or that have to debug access logs often. If used with sensitive data one should probably add a shell function and log rotate scripts to clean up ~/.config/lnav/ using the shred command.
