I see -- this would be the cleanest solution. I thought the UTC-filenames would be quite trivial to implement because the timestamps already exist for use with the -tt option but i didn't look at the consequences for the log directory. My C programming skills are quite limited -- but i can offer to test early versions of svlogp if you decide to work on it. >>What do you think about a runtime option for UTC-filenames that only >>comes into effect if there are no TAI-filenames in the log directory and >>vice versa? > > I'm not sure; svlogd at least should print a warning in this case, which > then ends up in the readproctitle log.
