51 Notes: If -from DT is not specified, the scan starts with the earliest
52 message in the syserr log. The ending time can be specified by using
53 -for, or -to, but not both. If both are omitted, the scan terminates
54 with the last message in the log. All dates and times must be in a
55 format acceptable to convert_date_to_binary_ described in the Multics
56 Subroutines and I/O Modules manual, Order No. AG93).
