[syslog-ng] Program Directive (EOF?)

[Ohrberg, Mick]

Ithas been addressed earlier. What you need to do is write a 'wrapper'
script that reads from stdin and appends its own EOF. That way you will get
the Ctrl-D that syslog doesn't give you.

: Is there any way that we could add a feature to the program directive 
: to have it send an EOF after a specified number of messages? Or 
: something similar?
: 
: I'm trying to set up qpage to page me when certain messages are 
: logged, but because there is no EOF sent (I think that's correct) the 
: qpage just sits there waiting for the message to end. [Same thing 
: with sendmail].
: 
: I guess I could just bite the bullet an write an go-between parser to 
: do it, but it seems that this sort of functionality would be good for 
: syslog-ng to have.
