Q:

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

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?   

A:

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:

Reply-Text: +OK events nixed
