the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes"
upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-)

I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way.

Many thanks for an incredible piece of software!

Hi Eric

I have written a small patch for the Busybox syslogd. With this patch
one can limit the size of the messagfile. As soon as the limit is
reached the syslogd can rotate or purge the messagefile(s) on his own.
There is no necessity to use an external rotatescript.

Even if logread does something similar, its very handy to have some
messagefile after your box crash.

I wrote this patch initial vor BB 0.6x where no cron daemon was avail.
Now I adapted it for the new Version and i hope it is still useful. At
least I still use it :-)

bye

f7dd10f67c Patch from Fillod Stephane
Add follow mode to logread, ala "tail -f /var/log/messages"
Note: output to a slow serial terminal can have side effects
on syslog because of the semaphore. In such case, define 
RC_LOGREAD.

480f1533f3 The logger utility does not really depend on CONFIG_SYSLOGD,

d4f90ed37e This patch from Vitezslav Batrla, is a cleaner fix for the

900c8f3362 Apply patch from Georg Magschok to fix syslog behavior so that the
'>' charactor can be logged, per rfc3164.

Also, a small patch from me to fix it so we use MAXLINE when allocating the
buffer, which is consistant with use everywhere else.  This is needed since
uClibc defines BUFSIZE as 255, causing lines to be truncated at 255...

c9f20d9fb9 Yet another major rework of the BusyBox config system, using the considerably
modified Kbuild system I put into uClibc.  With this, there should be no more
need to modify Rules.mak since I've moved all the interesting options into the
config system.  I think I've got everything updated, but you never know, I may
have made some mistakes, so watch closely.

Hi, Erik.

    my_getpw(uid/gid) and applets used it have problem:
    if username for uid not found, applets can`t detect it
    (but code pessent). Also "%8ld " format is bad:
    spaces not required (applets have self format
    or spec format (tar applet) and overflow for "id" applet...)
    This problem also pressent in stable version.
    Patch for unstable in attach.

c59716ff4c Joel Coltoff <joel@wmi.com> noticed that following a recent
change in uClibc that changed opening the /dev/log socket as
SOCK_STREAM to SOCK_DGRAM, busybox syslogd no longer worked
since it needed a matching change.  This fixes it so it
works once again.

fc78b79575 Applied syslogd fix submitted by Bart Visscher:
I am using BB 0.60.2 in a floppy distro, and the syslog (and logger) is
unable to log the "<" char.  This shows up in ppp logfiles.  [...]
#logger "<pcomp>" results in "comp>" arriving at the log.

85208e2ab9 Completely rework the config system so that it no longer annoys me to work on
the busybox development tree.  This eliminates the use of recursive make, and
once again allows us to run 'make' in a subdirectory with the expected result.
And things are now much faster too.  Greatly improved IMHO...

22ecf049b6 Per patch from vodz, change a couple of consts to defines, since
apparently gcc 2.95.4, at least, is too stupid to realize that a
"static const int" is in fact a constant.
