# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

socklog: socklog (system and kernel logging services)
socklog:
socklog: socklog, in cooperation with the runit package, is a small and secure
socklog: replacement for syslogd.
socklog:
socklog: It can receive syslog messages from a unix domain socket ("/dev/log")
socklog: and write them to various files on disk depending on facility
socklog: and priority. It can also read from and write to a udp socket.
socklog:
socklog: svlogd has a built in log file rotation based on file size,
socklog: so there is no need for any cron jobs or similar to rotate the logs.
