 Convert tinydns and dnscache logs to human-readable form
 """
 
-#
-# Reads log files from tinydns and/or dnscache and prints them out in
-# human-readable form. Logs can be supplied on stdin, or listed on the
-# command line:
-#
-#   $ cat @*.s | djbdns-logparse
-#   $ djbdns-logparse @*.s
-#   $ tail -f current | djbdns-logparse
-#
-# Pipes each log file through tai64nlocal, which must be on your path.
-#
