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
  - GMS
  - GPFax
  - ISDN Master Telephone log
  - JamMail

- Log files can be automatically truncated if their size exceeds the maximum size.
