NAME


watchgnupg - Read and print logs from a socket

SYNOPSIS


watchgnupg [--force] [--verbose] socketname

DESCRIPTION


Most of the main utilities are able to write their log files to a Unix Domain socket if configured that way. watchgnupg is a simple listener for such a socket. It ameliorates the output with a time stamp and makes sure that long lines are not interspersed with log output from other utilities.

watchgnupg is commonly invoked as

watchgnupg --force ~/.gnupg/S.log

OPTIONS


watchgnupg understands these options:

--force
 Delete an already existing socket file.

--verbose
 Enable extra informational output.

--version
 Print version of the program and exit.

--help
 Display a brief help page and exit.
