= syslogger
-Description goes here.
+A drop-in replacement for the standard Logger Ruby library, that logs to the syslog instead of a log file.
+Contrary to the SyslogLogger library, you can specify the facility and the syslog options.
-== Note on Patches/Pull Requests
-
-* Fork the project.
-* Make your feature addition or bug fix.
-* Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a
- future version unintentionally.
-* Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history.
- (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
-* Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
