I did see lots of documentation for doing omprog to 'file' but what about a
syslog stream. I want to process incoming files, and stream them out after
doing some transforms. I am using the stock 'plugins' program that comes
with the system, but am not sure how to do streaming out the 'ass' end of
the omprog after I receive streaming?

I don't understand what you are asking.

rsyslog invokes actions for each message. In the case of omprog, rsyslog starts the program if needed and passes the log message to the program on it's stdin. What your program does after that is strictly up to it.

If you are wanting to just modify the message, you shouldn't use omprog, you should use mmexternal which lets you modify the log message in rsyslog with an external program and then let rsyslog keep processing it.
