What is the config file format of such filtering? E.g. https://linux.die.net/man/5/syslog.conf shows no syntax to do that, so this is something new? How is it specified? (On a design note, sending messages from unrelated programs to a common sink, and then sorting them back into separate files per program... there are better ways to not mix them in the first place). > The second > patch adds the ability to include other configuration files using the > 'include' > keyword.

Are you implementing functionality which exists upstream (in this case, which one?), or it is a new thing (and if yes, why do you need it)? _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
