SUGGESTION
A sysadm who reads log files regular manner would find it helpful to
get the listing in correct order. This would help (head -10, tail ..)
etc commands, not to mention reading the logs in order as needed.
Please use regular template for all log files, like 3 numbers
should be plenty for all uses. The above would become:
mainlog
mainlog.001
mainlog.002
...
mainlog.010.gz
