SYNOPSIS
       logger  [  -i ] [ -s ] [ -ffile ] [ -ppri ] [ -ttag ] mes-
       sage...

DESCRIPTION
       Logger provides a shell command interface to the syslog(3)
       system log module.

       Options:

       -i     Log  the process id of the logger process with each
	      line.

       -s     Log the message to standard error, as well  as  the
	      system log.

       -ffile Log the specified file.

       -ppri  Enter the message with the specified priority.  The
	      priority may  be	specified  numerically	or  as	a
	      ``facility.level''   pair.    For	  example,   ``-p
	      local3.info'' logs the message(s) as  informational
	      level  in	 the  local3  facility.	  The  default is
	      ``user.notice.''

       -ttag  Mark every line in the log with the specified  tag.

       message
	      Write the message to log; if not specified, and the
	      ``-f'' flag is  not  provided,  standard	input  is
	      logged.

       The  logger utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error
       occurs.

EXAMPLES

	      logger -p local0.notice -t HOSTIDM -f /dev/idmc
