ENiGMA½ does not produce much to stdout. Logs are produced by Bunyan which outputs each entry as a JSON object.

Start by installing bunyan and making it available on your path:

npm install bunyan -g

or with Yarn:

yarn global add bunyan

To tail logs in a colorized and pretty format, issue the following command:

tail -F /path/to/enigma-bbs/logs/enigma-bbs.log | bunyan
