UwView is a viewer and search tool for huge text and log files, with a GUI and a command line (uvf) that share one engine.
Setup after install (once)
Use the command as uvf:
sudo snap alias uwview.uvf uvf
Read files on USB drives and other removable media (/media, /mnt):
sudo snap connect uwview:removable-media
Check: uvf --version shows the version. Without the alias, run the command as uwview.uvf. To undo the alias: sudo snap unalias uvf.
Examples
uvf 'logs/**/*.log' ERROR
uvf 'logs/*.gz' ERROR -open
Quote file patterns so that uvf, not the shell, expands them. uwview opens the GUI.
Where the snap can read
Files in your home folder, and removable media after the connect command above. Files elsewhere, such as /var/log, are not reachable from the snap; copy them under your home folder first.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
sudo yum install epel-release
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install UwView, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install uwview
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
