Hi all,
Hope the mods don't gripe about this being here and not the HOF forum, but with the number of HOF newcomers using it for GOTM (and perhaps not reading HOF forum), seems to make sense here.
I think the autolog has forum style as the default, so many of us probably have GOTM 12 in that style. Here is a way to convert that to the HTML style which will display nicely in your browser:
Open the log in any program that will find and replace text. Rename the file with extension .html (so your original stays intact)
Then, in this order, for the whole file ... (remove the x from bx and ux for your find/replace actions in 1 and 2 below... I had to add them so that the forum would display them, not read the b u as instructions and just execute)
1. Replace [bx][ux] with <b><u>
2. Replace [/ux][/bx] with </b></u><br> (if you want double space, an extra <br> after the first one will do that)
3. Replace [/color] with </span><br>
4. Replace [color=" with <span style="color: (note that you need to include one space after the <span style="color: )
5. Replace ] with >
Save the .html file with these changes made.
Now open your .html file, and you should have a log with color coded text (if you had colors on in the settings when the log was created) open in your browser.
Enjoy!
If it doesn't work, post it here in case I have mistranscribed something above.

edit: OK, the forum codes are being read in the forum, so ignore this until I can fix that!
edit2: adding the x to b and u in 1 and 2 has worked. Remove the x for your find/replace action in 1 and 2
Before I added the x, the forum commands were gone, and text was bolded. So the fix is in.
If this is confusing, just save 3 to 5 turns in each format in a test autolog, and it will become clear what we are doing.
