		 _\bt_\ba_\bg.

		 The priority may be specified numerically or as
		 a ``facility.level'' pair.  For example, ``-p
		 local3.info'' logs the message(s) as
		 _\bi_\bn_\bf_\bormational level in the _\bl_\bo_\bc_\ba_\bl_\b3 facility.  The
		 default is ``user.notice.''

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

     -\b-f\bf _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be	 Log the specified file.

     message	 The message to log; if not specified, and the -\b-f\bf
		 flag is not provided, standard input is logged.
