Welcome to Dannylog. A logfile parser written especially for AWS, the
Amiga Web Server.
*** NOTE! *** This version of Dannylog is designed to parse AWS 2.0 beta 5
logfiles. For parsing of earlier AWS logfiles, see dannylog-alpha4.lha
available through all distribution sites mentioned here, except AMINET.
This software is freeware, though I would appreciate an email, postcard,
or what-have-you. To get in contact with me;

*** Features ***
Provides stats files on requesting hosts, requested files, and referers,
other records to follow.
Provides error output on any record not matching status 200. This will be
improved upon. Error output is not meant for statistics-keeping, but is
meant to be easy-to-read to alert operators of problems, for
trouble-shooting.
*BIG FEATURE* Can re-read statsfiles so that you don't have to repeatedly
process your log, and you can delete it. :)
Included is a utiltity to extract interesting statistics about genertated
outputs.
*** New features to this release ***
Re-compiling with high optimization using libnix, providing larger, yet
faster binaries and no legal obligation to make source publically available.
Now outputs log comment fields along with error reports, particularly
handy for 600 error reports returned by AWS. Mike Meyer, author of AWS, has
mentioned the possibility of making these error codes more explicit in
future versions.

*** Disclaimer ***
Dannylog is a work-in-progress. Additional information is available at
http://www.uiuc.edu/ph/www/djhoward/dev/
Dannylog is still in Alpha version. It should not crash your system,
though if it does, I'd certainly like to hear about it! It is not very
glamorous at this point and has far to go before it's much to look at. This
documentation file was simply whipped-up one-the-fly, so it's probably not
the most valuable resource either. If you would like to see more
development, I'd appreciate words of encouragement, suggestions, etc. :)
*** Important Note ***
t10 REQUIRES at least 8k of stack! If you do not set this, you risk
crashing, BIG TIME! Dannyman reccomends saying "stack 10000" before running
t10!
Dannylog expects that in the directory from which you run it that there
be a directory called stats this is where Dannylog sends most output.
