*sigh*

Yep, I realized not too long after posting that straight sorting would be folly... Log entries that occur during the same second shouldn't necessarily be sorted by anything; they should simply preserve whatever order they had in their original files.

Apon realizing this, I started basically the above, hoping that my inherent laziness would be fed by someone elses' apache log merging script ("Here ya go, little guy!").

If I finish before an entire script magically appears in the comments below, than if someone wants it, just reply your intent.

That way, the saints (like merlyn) can point and laugh, too! :)

As a side note, wouldn't it have been cool to have mod_perl spin those logs off to the database server, into their own tables? Maybe my boss will pay me to write that...
