manu 3beea69ccd Reset ziptype on each line. Failure to do this caused any log file to
be compressed if it was listed after a line using Z or J flag. For
instance, we compressed log2 with the config file below:
/var/log/log1                        600  5    100  *    Z
/var/log/log2                        600  7    100  *    -

dogcow 37f3200b59 add new flag to newsyslog(5): J to bzip2 files.
There are no longer any hardcoded gzip-specific args, yay.
And while I was at it, compiles with -Wsigned, too.

reed 3b5d4b35bd Reworded, because it previously made it sound like it only sent a
signal if path_to_pid_file field is present.

Also mention that /var/run/syslogd.pid is used as the default
path_to_pid_file.

This was brought up on netbsd-help and Richard Braun suggested
this should be documented.

lukem 279552d3db fix up various .Nm abuses:
- keep the case consistent between the actual name and what's referenced.
  e.g, if it's `foo', don't use '.Nm Foo' at the start of a sentence.
- remove unnecessary `.Nm foo' after the first occurrence (except for
  using `.Nm ""' if there's stuff following, or for the 2nd and so on
  occurrences in a SYNOPSIS
- use Sx, Ic, Li, Em, Sq, and Xr as appropriate

- Add some comments. It might be getting a little unclear what's going on.
- Make it useful as non-root.

Also, some new features taken from FreeBSD. The last two are not well
tested yet:

- Specifing log files on the command line limits operation to those files.
- Add cyclic time specification for periodic trimming.
- Add restricted ISO-8601 time specification for periodic trimming.
