What log viewer are you using on Windows?

I develop on OS X, and use the Console app to view the orbeon.log.
Having an easy access to the latest messages in the log is essential
when developing in Orbeon Forms, and the Console app does a pretty
good job at it. On UNIX, a tail -f in a terminal works just as well.
But what about Windows? What log viewer are you using on Windows?

i found the chainsaw tool quite useful:
http://logging.apache.org/chainsaw/index.html

it lets you toggle accepting new logging messages on or off, so you don't have to change the terminal window or to quit tail to examine a stacktrace in detail - in addition (IIRC), it displays xml data with line breaks and so on (useful when inspecting XPL debug output).
