Changes since newsyslog 1.0:

    Improved readability of "newsyslog -n".
    Fixed a SystemV compilation problem.

    New -F flag to force log rotation.
    Log files may now be specified on the command line to specify
	which logs are to be rotated.
    Specifying a command to run instead of sending a signal now works.
    Better conf file sanity checking for monitor mode.
    Better error checking and reporting in the config file parser.
    Fixed the minimum file size check, size was KB instead of bytes.
    Added support for rotating files at a specific time.
    Now accepts ':' as the separator between login and group names.
