A slight bit of code and doco cleanup, but mostly:

Add the much-needed and long-desired ability to force the log rotation
to take place on a specific day or time, and document same. This works
by extending the syntax of the `when' field to allow a restricted
ISO 8601 time specification, and performing the log rotation if newsyslog
is run during the same hour as is specified.

# dc55fe4c 09-Jun-1998 Andrey A. Chernov <ache@FreeBSD.org>

Add optional config file field: signal number to send (defaulted to HUP)
F.e. apache restarts less agressively on USR1 then on HUP


# 28a9b05b 10-May-1998 Tim Vanderhoek <hoek@FreeBSD.org>

Arg! Someone fixed the synopsis in -stable's newsyslog.8, but not
in -current. However, they fixed both the ordering and the missing -F
flag. Merge from 22 and fix ordering here, too.


# cd6f8bd2 10-May-1998 Tim Vanderhoek <hoek@FreeBSD.org>

1) Remove a line that somehow strayed from the one true path of
its sentence.
2) Fix usage (-F option).

Allow a '-' flag as a placeholder so that path_to_pid_file
can be specified without the flags field.
Fix bogus "trail" left in parse routine where the code jumps
past the end of the line and wanders

Fix bogus "trail" left in parse routine where the code jumps

1) Add yet one optional field: pid file to send SIGHUP to if log rotated
(good thing for apache f.e.) This change is backward compatible with old
newsyslog.conf files.

1) Add yet one optional field: pid file to send SIGHUP to if log rotated
(good thing for apache f.e.) This change is backward compatible with old
newsyslog.conf files.

2) Do not compress log if SIGHUP sending failed for some reason
(f.e. pid file deleted). Newcoming messages will be lost
otherwise.

3) Misc cleanup while I am here.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

Obtained from: NetBSD
imported the newsyslog command from NetBSD - it make the "rotation" of
the logfiles much simpler (it is currently done by "hand" in the
/etc/[daily,weekly,monthly] scripts) - now it will be done by invoking
newsyslog every hour which is very customizable via a
/etc/newsyslog.conf file
