Easiest way to Filter Eclipse Console Output text

Question

I'm asking this in relation to Flex Builder, but it might apply to Eclipse in general.

Trace statements in Flex Builder get sent to an Eclipse Output Console. What is the easiest way to filter this text on the Eclipse side?

Specifically, I'd like to be able to filter (ignore) lines by patterns.

I came across Logback, but it seems like overkill for this scenario. Is there no way to script something like this Eclipse itself?

Nothing specific to FlexBuilder. If you need such a functionality, you'd need to write an Eclipse plug-in. Look-up EPIC website.

Take a look at this one to start off.
