merging log files help please
 

I have a directory of my error log files from apache.

I want to merge all of these files into one log file.

There are so few errors from my site that I dont want to have an error log from every day as most of them are empty.

Is there a shell command to extract all entries from all of the logs and output it to one log file.

Im sure there is a way to do this. The only thing I fould on google was a link to a webmasterworld.com article that would explain how to do this but they wanted $80 to subscribe.

These logs come from my hosting company so I can not modify apache to only keep one log file for errors.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance
