.SH NAME
Logger plugin for abrt(8)
.SH DESCRIPTION
.P
.I abrt
is a daemon that watches for application crashes. When a crash occurs,
it collects the crash data and takes action according to 
its configuration.  This manual page describes the \fILogger\fP plugin 
for \fIabrt\fP.
.P
This plugin is used to log the crash to a file.
.P
The log will contain all the file names as well as their
content. It also contains "duplicity check": the ID
of the crash, which is used to tell whether the same
crash has happened previously.
.SH INVOCATION
The plugin is invoked in the \fIabrt.conf\fP configuration file. 
No parameters are necessary.
.SH CONFIGURATION
The \fILogger.conf\fP configuration file contains
several entries in a format "Option = Value". The options are:
.SS LogPath
The path to the log file.
.SS AppendLogs
If set to "yes" (the default) \fILogger\fP will append
the report to the file, otherwise it will overwrite the file (so
only the last crash will be stored).
.SH EXAMPLES
.P
This is a snippet from the \fIabrt.conf\fP configuration file.
Log all the C/C++ application crashes:
