DESCRIPTION

`phonebill' is, simply said, a log file analyzer.  What it basically does
is scan log file(s) generated by a terminal program or a mailer, extract
all information about calls you have made by using your modem, and store
this in its own (short) format.  After extracting the calls `phonebill' can
generate various reports in which you can find information on duration and
costs of the calls.

Here is a small list of the main features:

 * Very flexible user-configurable rates, supporting exceptions for
   certain days and dates.

 * User-configurable log scanners: `phonebill' by default supports
   various log files, but for any log file that is not supported the
   user is able to create a scanner. The following is a list of log
   files that are already supported:
     * AmiTel
     * AutoPilot
     * CyberPager
     * DreamTerm

   costs ...

NEW FEATURES

The following is an incomplete list of the most important changes:

 * Added billing per second.

 * Besides the built-in log file truncation, you can now also run a
   (shell) command when a log file exceeds its size. For example,
   setting the command to `delete "%f"' deletes the log file.

 * Several rates have been updated. In particular, swedish rates
   now use billing per second.

 * Several bug fixes.
