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 can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.
You need first add the snappy repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.
Tumbleweed:
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
Leap 15.x:
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
If needed, Swap out openSUSE_Leap_15. for, openSUSE_Leap_16.0 if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.
With the repository added, import its GPG key:
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new snappy repository:
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
Snap can now be installed with the following:
sudo zypper install snapd
You then need to either reboot, logout/login or source /etc/profile to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the snapd and the snapd.apparmor services with the following commands:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
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.
