NOTE

       This manpage is a short description of rushlast.  For  a  detailed  discussion,  including
       examples  and  usage  recommendations,  refer  to the manual GNU Rush -- a restricted user
       shell, available in texinfo format.  If the info reader and  the  rush  documentation  are
       properly installed on your system, the command

           info rushlast

       should give you access to the complete manual.

       You  can  also  view  the  manual  using  the info mode in emacs(1), or find it in various
       formats online at

DESCRIPTION

       Searches back through the GNU Rush database and displays a list of all user sessions since
       the database was created.

       The utility operates on the default accounting  database,  which  is  maintained  only  if
       rush(1) runs in accounting mode.

OPTIONS

       -F, --format=STRING
              Use  STRING  instead  of  the  default  format.   Use STRING instead of the default
              format.  See the section FORMAT, for a detailed discussion of  the  format  syntax.
              If  the  STRING  begins  with  a @, then this character is removed from it, and the
              resulting string is regarded as a name of the file  to  read.   The  file  is  read
              literally, except that lines beginning with a semicolon are ignored.

       -f, --file=DIR
              Look for database files in DIR.

       --forward
              Show entries in chronological order.

       -H, --no-header
              Do not display header line.

       -n, --count=NUMBER
              Show at most NUMBER records.

       Other options

       -h, --help
              Give this help list.

       --usage
              Give a short usage message.

       --version
              Print program version.

ENVIRONMENT

       RUSHLAST_FORMAT
              When  set,  supplies a format string to use instead of the built-in format.  If the
              value begins with a @ sign, rest of characters is treated as the name  of  file  to
              read the format from, similarly to the --format option, which see.

              The precedence rule for format selection is:

              1.     The --format option.

              2.     The RUSHLAST_FORMAT environment variable.

              3.     Built-in format.

FORMATS

       The  format  string  supplied  with  the -F (--format) option controls the output of every
       record from the GNU Rush accounting database.  It consists of  the  following  classes  of
       objects:

       Ordinary characters
              These are copied to the output verbatim.

       Escapes
              An  escape  is  a  backslash,  followed  by  a single character.  It is interpreted
              according to the following table:

                      Sequence    Replaced with
                      \a          Audible bell character (ASCII 7)
                      \b          Backspace character (ASCII 8)
                      \e          Escape character (ASCII 27)
                      \f          Form-feed character (ASCII 12)
                      \n          Newline character (ASCII 10)
                      \r          Carriage return character (ASCII 13)
                      \t          Horizontal tabulation character (ASCII 9)
                      \v          Vertical tabulation character (ASCII 11)
                      \\          A single backslash
                      \"          A double-quote.

              Any escape not listed in the table above results  in  its  second  character  being
              output.

       Quoted strings
              Strings are delimited by single or double quotes.  Within a string escape sequences
              are interpreted as described above.

       Format specifications
              Format specification can be regarded  as  a  kind  of  function,  which  outputs  a
              particular  piece  of  information from the database record.  Syntactically, format
              specification starts with an opening brace and ends  with  a  closing  brace.   The
              first word after the brace is the name of the specification.  The rest of words are
              positional arguments followed by keyword arguments.  Both are optional.  A  keyword
              argument begins with a colon.

       The available format specifications are:

       (newline [COUNT])
              Causes the newline character to be output.  If the optional count is supplied, that
              many newlines will be printed

       (tab [COUNT])
              Advance to the next tab stop in the output stream.  If optional COUNT  is  present,
              then skip that many tab stops.  Each tab stop is eight characters long.

       The following specifications output particular fields of a database record.  They all take
       two positional arguments: WIDTH and TITLE.

       The first argument, WIDTH sets the maximum output length for this specification.   If  the
       number  of  characters  actually  output  is less than the width, they will be padded with
       whitespace either to the left or to the right, depending on the  presence  of  the  :right
       keyword  argument.   If  the  number  of  characters  is  greater than WIDTH, they will be
       truncated to fit.  If WIDTH is not given, the exact data are output as is.

       The second argument, TITLE, gives the title of this  column  for  the  heading  line.   By
       default no title is output.

       Every  field specification accepts at least two keyword arguments.  The keyword :right may
       be used to request alignment to the right for the data.  This keyword is ignored if  WIDTH
       is not given.

       The  keyword  :empty  followed by a string causes the program to output that string if the
       resulting value for this specification would otherwise be empty.

       (user WIDTH TITLE [:empty REPL][:right])
              Print the user login name.

       (start-time WIDTH TITLE [:empty REPL][:right][:format DATE-FORMAT])
              Date and time when the session started.

              The :format keyword introduces the  strftime(3)  format  string  to  be  used  when
              converting the date for printing.  The default value is "%a %H:%M".

       (stop-time WIDTH TITLE [:empty REPL][:right][:format DATE-FORMAT])
              Time  when  the  command  finished.   If  it  is still running, the word running is
              output.

       (duration WIDTH TITLE [:empty REPL][:right])
              Total time of the session duration.

       (rule WIDTH TITLE [:right])
              The tag of the rule that was used to serve the user.

       (command WIDTH TITLE [:empty REPL][:right])
              Command line being executed.

       (pid WIDTH TITLE [:right])
              PID of the process.

       The default format is:

       (user 10 Login)" "
       (rule 8 Rule)" "
       (start-time 0 Start)" "
       (stop-time 0 Stop)" "
       (duration 7 Time)" "
       (command 32 Command)
