---------------------
New log formats can be defined by placing JSON configuration files in
subdirectories of the :file:`~/.lnav/formats/` directory. The directories and
files can be named anything you like, but the files must have the '.json' suffix. A
sample file containing the builtin configuration will be written to this
directory when **lnav** starts up. You can consult that file when writing your
own formats or if you need to modify existing ones. Format directories can
also contain '.sql' and '.lnav' script files that can be used automate log file
analysis.
