+"cronolog" is a simple program that reads log messages from its input
+and writes them to a set of output files, the names of which are
+constructed using template and the current date and time. The
+template uses the same format specifiers as the Unix date command
+(which are the same as the standard C strftime library function).
+
+"cronolog" is intended to be used in conjunction with a Web server, such
+as Apache to split the access log into daily or monthly logs.
