What you have provided seems to do this. Thanks very much! (but see below).

I don't think DateFormatFileAppender will do the watch thing. If I set the
pattern to 'logs'yyyyMMdd'.log' there will be just one logfile for the day. The
comments in your source give a sample pattern that will create sub-directories
for yyy, MM-MMM and dd-EEE. This is definately not what I want. IMO a smaller
number of files and directories is perferable. But having only one file per day
is not enough.
So although I appreciate this contribution (and very fast too), I still think
my enh rqst stands.
