Super useful tool but need to be aware that this is reading potentially untrusted input (e.g. in the case of http request logs) and written in c++, so a possible attack vector. I use lnav where I trust the logs, but do wish a safe implementation existed.

Memory safety doesn't mean it's safe. And C++ doesn't mean it's unsafe.

Browsers are in C++, do you not use them? Curl is in C, do you not use it? Kernel is C...
