Description Michael Osipov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2024-10-13 16:16:00 UTC 
newsyslog.conf(8) allows several flags to configured for every logfile. I'd like to configure some flags like B by default w/o repeating myself every single time. Some others might want to compress by default. B because I don't want newsyslog to manipulate my logfiles at all.
