Comment (by mcs):
In light of the recent "relay early" attack, some users will really want a
way to monitor the tor log in real time. We just committed a stopgap
change that additionally routes all of the tor messages received by Tor
Launcher to Firefox's Browser Console (I will attach a screenshot to show
what the output looks like).
Commit:
https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-
launcher.git/commit/423552fe7009ebe8bd61f92ca525018c124a1b56
Advantages:
- Much more convenient than "Copy to Clipboard" for real-time monitoring.
- Can apply a filter.
- Can copy individual messages.
Disadvantages:
- Tor messages are mixed in with other messages and not categorized
nicely.
- Cannot open the Browser Console during browser startup.
If other people like this stopgap solution, it should be merged into
maint-0.2.5 for TB 3.6.4 (assuming that train has not already left the
station).
