# The sysutils/eventlog port

## eventlog-0.2.12p1 – replacement for the syslog() API

## Description

    The EventLog library aims to be a replacement of the simple syslog() API
    provided on UNIX systems. The major difference between EventLog and syslog
    is that EventLog tries to add structure to messages.

    Where you had a simple non-structured string in syslog() you have a
    combination of description and tag/value pairs.

    EventLog provides an interface to build, format and output an event record.
    The exact format and output method can be customized by the administrator
    via a configuration file.
