Asides from what Alfred said, it'd be nice if it supported -s. From the
util-linux dmesg manpage:
-sbufsize
Use a buffer of size bufsize to query the kernel ring buffer.
This is 16392 by default. (The default kernel syslog buffer
size was 4096 at first, 8192 since 1.3.54, 16384 since 2.1.113.)
If you have set the kernel buffer to be larger than the default
then this option can be used to view the entire buffer.
Of course, this doesn't make sense with the generic backend, but can be
provided for compatibility. Also, we could expect that kernel-specific
backends will be added in the future.
