To use kreXX as a logger simply use the logger ViewHelper:

.. code-block:: html

    <krexx:log>{_all}</krexx:log>



The access to the logs files can be found in the first tab of the backend module. The list is automatically updated by
ajax every few seconds.

Each entry has a unique colour to make new files better recognisable,

To make these logfiles easier accessible, we have provided a backend menu, where you can easily view them. The list is
automatically updated.

To prevent these files from clogging up your system, kreXX will only keep **10** files and automatically delete older
ones. This value can also be changed the logging option **Maximum files in the log folder** to any number bigger than **0**.

A file can be access by simply clicking on the filename. The trashcan on the right deletes the file.

Alternatively, you can access the logfiles by using the TYPO3 Admin Panel.
