NAME

       log - write a stream to a rotating log file

SYNOPSIS

       log dir

DESCRIPTION

       log  reads  a stream from its stdin, and writes the stream
       to a file in the specified dir.

       Every hour, the current log file is closed, a new  one  is
       opened, and an older log file is deleted.

OPTIONS

       dir    The  directory to which the log files will be writ-
              ten.

BUGS

       There is no way  to  change  the  rotation  interval  (one
       hour),  the  number of log files that are kept (3), or the
       log filenames used (NWR-*.raw).
