 * Introduction
 
 This is a minimal implementation of a syslog-like protocol that is
 tested against a minimal syslog daemon included with Gentoo, rsyslogd
 and OpenWRT's log daemon.  This also includes a command line program
 that listens for incoming syslog connections, pretty prints them and
 then saves them to an sqlite db in /tmp/logs.db.
 
 By default, this client includes the ability to recognize dnsmasq's log
 entries and record them to their own tables.
 
 The db needs to be precreated with this schema:
 
 create table messages (severity int, facility int, tag text, pid int, message text, host text, ts datetime default current_timestamp);
 create table dns_query (query_type text, request text, requester text, added text default current_timestamp);
 create table dns_reply (query text, reply text, added datetime default current_timestamp);
 
 
 * TODO
 
 - other db backends
 - customizable db paths
