The guide is definitive. Reality is frequently inaccurate.
In this version you can view a single remote logfile by entering the URL (must start with http).
This works via curl and is of course still very beta. The curl connection has a timeout and is being reloaded, so it should work with files that update continuously on the server.
Please note: The remote logfile should be text-only – html is not being rendered (and that would be very difficult).
