Thanks for the reply. Since I'm not familiar with compiling software, it seems that I'm going to need to get used to the prefixes.
I'd like to remove it because I used bFilter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bfilter/) before Privoxy. Take a look at how it log window is: http://i.imgur.com/Uq7Ce.png (double-cliking a URL copies it, and ctrl+c copies the entire list).
I use the log window to know what were the the URLs that *have just been accessed or blocked* by the proxy, so I don't really need time stamps or IDs like 00000c9c. :)
I don't know if bFilter code could be re-used or converted by your team, but I leave this suggestion to you if you have plans of changing the GUI.
Thanks again for the reply and for keeping Privoxy updated.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Of course it's possible, but you have to recompile Privoxy to do it.
The log message prefix gets added in log_error() in errlog.c:
701: /* Add prefix for everything but Common Log Format messages */
702: if (loglevel != LOG_LEVEL_CLF)
With the blog removed all log messages should be prefix-free. It's not clear to me why this would be a good thing, though.
