#912: Need option for ASCII logging writer to only print CSV header line
------------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: carsten | Type: Feature Request
Status: new | Priority: Normal
Milestone: Bro2.2 | Component: Bro
Version: git/master | Keywords: logging csv ascii
------------------------+-------------------------------
The new logging framework is a big step forward, and the current Bro 2.1
ASCII writer gives a lot of meta information to allow unambiguity and
script based post-processing.
In addition, I like to have a simplified logging format which I can just
open in any spreadsheet program like Excel as a CSV file, i.e. only 1
header row, and no prepending "#fields" entry.
The attached diffs change 3 source files to add an option
"only_single_header_row" to the ascii writer to achieve this simplified
output.
Please consider to bring it into next release.
