# the following rule implements syslog logging for test messages with 
# variable program names -- in order to change program names on the fly,
# the rule communicates with syslog daemon through /dev/log socket
# (since daemon=3 and info=6, and the priority value is calculated as
# 8*facility+level, the priority value for "daemon.info" is 8*3+6=30)

type=Single
ptype=RegExp
pattern=test: (\S+): (.+)
desc=log message '$2' for program $1 with priority daemon.info
action=udgram /dev/log <30>%.monstr %.mdaystr %.hmsstr $1: $2
