68c35072f9 Add an option to make periodic(8) quiet when no output was generated.
The man page part of the patch is my fault, the changes to the
periodic script is Dominik's.

c9d99fb534 mdoc(7) police: fix markup in revision 1.25. 2001-12-08 16:15:44 +00:00

2204f3ce42 Long ago, there was just /etc/daily. Then /etc/security was split out
of /etc/daily. Some time later, /etc/daily became a set of periodic(8)
scripts. Now, this evolution continues, and /etc/security has been
broken into periodic(8) scripts to make local customization easier and
more maintainable.

9ed55d1192 Another overhaul of the periodic stuff.
All periodic sub-scripts <larf> now have their return codes interpreted
by periodic(8).  Output may be masked based on variable values in
periodic.conf.

It's also now possible to email periodic output to arbitrary addresses,
or to send it to a log file, examples of which can be found in
newsyslog.conf.

The upshot of it all should be no discernable changes to the default
behaviour of periodic(8).

f3e285ba7d Introduce /etc/defaults/periodic.conf, similar in concept to rc.conf.
The only change in the default functionality should be that
the output reports are slightly more verbose WRT files deleted.
