Excuse, no english help text, yet.
But see lmtab.example for an example.
English:
Logmanager
==========
Dependencies
------------
You need a posix-shell and fuser.
Install
-------
Untar archive or checkout repository.
You only need one logmanager per machine, all users can use this at the same time.
It is not important to add it to PATH or move files to /usr/local/bin or something like that.
Per user you need the configfile `~/.lmtab`. See also `lmtab.example`.
Everytime you change something, you should run a test:
env -i ./logmanager -N
This will do nothing, but shows, what will happen.
Attantion: Also if this command will not fail, it is possible, that logmanager as cronjob will fail.
You should test logmanager as cronjob with testfiles first.
If it works, you can use logmanager.
Possible errors are: fuser not found. You need changes to `~/.lmtab` for setting PATH.
Cronjob
-------
It is enough to add logmanager to crontab as user, you will run it:
0 3 * * * exec /path/to/logmanager
This will run logmanager everytime at 3:00. It will use his `~/.lmtab`.

Tests werden bei jeder Änderung empfohlen:
# env -i ./logmanager -N
env -i ./logmanager -N
Es sollten die meisten Umgebungsvariablenprobleme dadurch entdeckt
werden können. Siehe hierzu das `fuser`-Problem weiter unten.
