Should be nice if the file watcher plasmoid is able to filter lines like a grep command works.

An new option filter should be added to allow words and/or regular expressions.

Example: 
I want to check a log file directly on my desktop to see who tries to login in my ssh server but the log file has a lot of useless lines. I usually check it with the terminal:
cat /var/log/auth.log | grep ssh
But would be nice if filewatcher plasmoid does the process of filter lines with words or regular expressions.
