Hi; 

Since rsyslog has been around since 2004, it's gone through two or three
versions of the configuration language. 

As such, there's a ton of web pages with rsyslog configuration examples
that are for the deprecated versions, and it's a mess. 

What would be cool would be a web page like the Rsyslog configuration
builder
(https://www.rsyslog.com/rsyslog-configuration-builder/https://www.rsyslog.com/rsyslog-configuration-builder/)
that could take a configuration file as input and either convert it to
the latest language or leave it as-is.  

Or perhaps a browser plugin that could do the same thing. 

That'd be much easier than hunting down all of the web pages showing
examples with deprecated configuration syntax and get them changed by
their multitude of authors! 

This idea was inspired by a browser plugin that changes all occurrences
of "Trump" to "Drumpf" on loaded web pages: 

        * https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/donald-drumpf/ 
        *
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/make-trump-drumpf-again/lmnokpclgaloldolngkkpccnambcciem?hl=en
