Is it possible to exclude (filter out) events from the Mod Event Socket telnet client output?

Question

Mod Event Socket provides a useful telnet client. I can filter specific events and keep track of just these, but I can't find how to exclude events I don't want to monitor (typically HEARTBEAT and RE_SCHEDULE). Is it possible?

Answer 1

Yes, it's possible. Just use nixevent:

nixevent HEARTBEAT

nixevent RE_SCHEDULE

Everytime you type one of the above lines followed by two line breaks, it should respond with this:
