Suwu

File Viewer

View files with syntax highlighting, auto-refresh, and PDF rendering — perfect for monitoring logs and reviewing code without leaving the browser.

Opening Files

Open a file in the viewer from the File Browser (click any file) or from a terminal:

# Open a file in the viewer tile
suwu open /path/to/file.txt

# Open and watch for changes
suwu open --watch /var/log/syslog

Supported Formats

  • Source code — syntax highlighting for 100+ languages (Go, Python, JavaScript, Rust, etc.).
  • Plain text — log files, config files, markdown.
  • PDF — rendered in-browser with page navigation.
  • Images — PNG, JPG, GIF, SVG, WebP displayed inline.
  • Binary files — hex view with ASCII sidebar.

Auto-Refresh

When opened with --watch, the viewer polls for changes and updates the display automatically. This is ideal for:

  • Monitoring log files during a build.
  • Watching config files that change on reload.
  • Tracking output from background processes.
Tip

Open a log file in watch mode in one tile while running your build in another — you'll see new lines appear in real time.

  • Scroll with the mouse wheel or keyboard.
  • Search with Ctrl+F — matches are highlighted in the gutter.
  • Jump to line with Ctrl+G.
  • Copy selected text with Ctrl+C.

PDF Viewer

PDF files render with full pagination. Use the toolbar to navigate pages, zoom in/out, and download the original file.
