* Introduce to the !program specification a capability similar to the onedcs2002-09-231-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | that already exists for hosts: being able to specify a section that applies to every program *except* the one in question. The normal syntax for program specification is still valid. For the new capability, one uses: !-program Since there is no way to specify a program beginning with a dash in the old syntax, as it would be interpreted as the case above, the following alternative syntax to the original capability is provided: !+program This shouldn't introduce incompatibilities with any syslogd configuration in production because -stable's syslogd does not support a dash anywhere in the program specification.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a similar way to the way it can select messages from a given program. Lines beginning with "+hostname" or "#+hostname" select messaes from that hostname and lines beginning with "-hostname" or "#-hostname" match messages not from that hostname. There are some significant style issues left in the original program selection code and the man page. This should be cleared up in some later commits.
