Using log4net for live log viewing - what is the best appender/method/viewer

Question

I've recently discovered log4net which is a great asset for me. I'm currently logging events to a txt file using the RollingLogFileAppender . This works great but I'd really like to be able to have a logging viewer that I can pull up live.

So I want a window that I keep up when my application is running and when new items are logged, they get displayed in the window. I can handle how to parse and display the info, I just don't know how to get that info sent to me live using log4net .

Any suggestions?

If you are talking about an application running on your machine or network, you can continue to log to the text file and use Baretail or Baretail Pro to view the files. (Prices currently range from $0 to $US 35)
