I have a windows log forwarded to the splunk via Forwarders, and I want Forwarder to read to the splunk line by line. What should I do?

The following is my log format:
xxx.log
xxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxx

There is only one line of text per line, no timestamp

I think that it can be read with the default setting.

If the character code is other than UTF - 8, please set it in props.conf.
