DESCRIPTION

13       cronosplit is a simple program that reads lines from a set of input log
14       files,  which  must  be in Common Log Format and write each lines to an
15       output files, the name of which is constructed using the template spec‐
16       ified and timestamp from the the line.  The template uses the same for‐
17       mat specifiers as the Unix date(1) command (which are the same  as  the
18       standard C strftime library function).
19

Options

21       accepts the following options and arguments:
22
23       --template=TEMPLATE
24              specifies  the template for the output log files (using the for‐
25              mat specifiers described below).

28              print additional status messages to the standard error stream.
29
30       --debug

Template format

39       Each character in the template represents a character in  the  expanded
40       filename,  except  for  date  and  time  format  specifiers,  which are
41       replaced by their expansion.  Format specifiers consist of a  `%'  fol‐
42       lowed by one of the following characters:
43
44       %      a literal % character
45
46       n      a new-line character

65              determined

72
73       b      the locale's abbreviated month name (e.g.: Jan .. Dec)
74
75       B      the locale's full month name, (e.g.: January .. December)
76
77       c      the locale's date and time  (e.g.:  "Sun  Dec  15  14:12:47  GMT
78              1996")
79
80       d      day of month (01 .. 31)

88
89       W      week of the year with Monday as first day of week (00..53, where
90              week 1 is the week containing the first Monday of the year)
91
92       w      day of week (0 .. 6, where 0 corresponds to Sunday)
93
