what is the purpose of ---MARK---? I know it just fills up my logs, but I never really understood why I'd want that ...
Suggestions? What do other people use it for?
you can use it to test if your logging daemon is operational, even if nothing gets logged. Other than that, it can come in quite handy when manually parsing through logs, because you can easily skip a bunch of lines (same can be done by searching for date/time, but that's more ty- ping) ...
