Nice idea. I rarely view logs on my local machine, and if I do, they already are in my local TZ. Get it into Debian and Red Hat, then this will be super useful.
journalctl does this by default? Already in most Linux distros.
Oh cool. Didn’t know that. One thing though: I would rather be able to treat logs as files. For example, on occasion I have to download log files from S3 or other servers and analyze a bunch of them. I don’t think journalctl will do that for me.
Yep, and there's also a --utc flag, but unfortunately no UTC offset flag to do the reverse (on a remote server which perhaps is already using UTC). Could be a good first commit for someone out there...
