##! Interface for the ASCII log writer. Redefinable options are available
##! to tweak the output format of ASCII logs.
##!
##! The ASCII writer currently supports one writer-specific per-filter config
##! option: setting ``tsv`` to the string ``T`` turns the output into
##! "tab-separated-value" mode where only a single header row with the column
##! names is printed out as meta information, with no "# fields" prepended; no
##! other meta data gets included in that mode. Example filter using this::
##!
##! local f: Log::Filter = [$name = "my-filter",
##! $writer = Log::WRITER_ASCII,
##! $config = table(["tsv"] = "T")];
##!
module LogAscii;

## by a previous Zeek process (e.g. due to crash) and rotate them.
##
