comment = "Create and rotate system log files"

desc = <<EOD
The newsyslog(8) utility, usually run automatically from cron(8), is used to
create log files in /var/log and periodically rotate existing log files.

By default, newsyslog will rotate the log files used by the syslogd(8) daemon,
but it can be configured to rotate any user-configured logfile based on a set
of rules defined in its configuration file.
