Checking logs ingame
MrPresident:
Unfortunately all of the official developers of ULX/ULib have things that fall much higher on their priority list than new content updates (things other than bug/garry fixes).
Some of the more experienced unofficial developers (dare I classify myself into that category) have other priorities as well.
Though, if it makes you feel better, I have been giving thought to how I would go about doing this should I choose to take it up.

I would certainly classify you as an experienced developer. :)

Recently a new topic about this was created, he was told to re-post it on his original thread. I decided to help him out and just quote it here...

I think a nice way to manage the data would be to load it in chunks and then provide a simple load more button. That way it would reduce the lag that would be caused by sending too much data to a client.
Also if I may suggest some alternatives...
1. Download the files using FTP and then viewing them in a program such as Notepad++ (It has a very decent search feature that allows you to search in multiple files and display all the items that where found in a separate window.)
2. Create a webpage where one could see the log files, then you could simple use the method below to show them in game...
--- Code: ----- Taken from wiki.garrysmod.com/page/VGUI/Elements/HTML
HTMLTest = vgui.Create( "HTML" )
HTMLTest:SetPos( 50,50 )
HTMLTest:SetSize( ScrW() - 100, ScrH() - 100 )
HTMLTest:OpenURL( "wiki.garrysmod.com" )
--- End code ---
Also as the description for DHTML* implies you can do an extra Lua check to see if the "requester" is an admin or not.
* "VGUI HTML Panel using Awesomium. Capable of running Lua input from the webpage"

I actually have the webbased side of this working on my website:
http://wullysgamers.co.uk/players/
It downloads the last three logs on the server to the web server once a day and they can be viewed in the logs section.
My only issue was I could never find out how to stream the present days log, I was thinking about trying to do it through rcon like how clients such as HLSW do it, but I'm not sure how to do it through PHP.
