Fatal error display -> fixed in 1.5.0/SVN

Description

When the one of the last entries in the log file is an error, it could be presumed that it caused it to crash.

Displaying this error message (or even any error message from the log file) in the GUI would help those with limited experience recognize problems without having to search so much. A simple message (but preferably not a popup) like

"The log file reports an error occurred just prior to the termination of your last session. Please see PATH/XXXX.log for details."

or

"The log file reports an error occurred just prior to the termination of your last session. ERROR: ................ Please see Path/XXXX.log for more details."

would be helpful.

We've added a show log option in the Machine menu of the GUI for exactly this purpose.

That's not in 1.4.0 iirc though. Latest SVN and the next version.
