       file to display.

	    Here '#' is a number; e.g., `-10'.	The specified number of lines is displayed from the end of the log file.  The default is  to  dis-
	    play the entire log file, unless the -f, -F, or --follow options are used, in which case the default is to display 10 lines.

       -s system, --system system
	    Display only log entries pertaining to the specified system.

       -u, --user user

	    spooldir, execute, incoming, outgoing.  --debug option may appear multiple times.  A number may also be given, which will turn on that
