logprn

logprn(1)							     logtools								 logprn(1)

NAME

       logprn - merge Common-Log Format web logs based on time-stamps

SYNOPSIS

       logprn logfile idle-time[:max-wait] command

DESCRIPTION

       The  logprn program is designed to print new data that is appended to log files.  It will wait until a specified amount of time has elapsed
       since the last write to the file before printing the data.  It will print the data by pipeing it to a specified command.  The command  will
       be run by popen(3) so the usual shell commands will operate (whether this is a bug or a feature is a matter of opinion).

OPTIONS

       logfile
	      specifies a file to read data from.  It should be a regular file not a pipe, device, or anything else.

       idle-time

       max-wait

       command

EXIT STATUS

       0 Never happens, this program will run forever.

       1 Bad command-line parameters or couldn't stat the log file on startup - couldn't start the program.

       2 File disappeared or became unreadable at run-time.

       3 Can't run the specified command.

AUTHOR

       This program, its manual page, and the Debian package were written by Russell Coker <russell@coker.com.au>.

BUGS

       Uses popen (3) but I consider this a feature not a bug.
