I'm going to assume that you're talking about my asql tool, which was previously mentioned here as Querying Apache logfiles via SQL, and can be very useful for ad-hoc queries.

But being console based it does lack the prettyness of awstats, webalizer, etc.

    Hi, Steve:

    your tool is very cool! it can be even better if you can add a '-e' command-line switch like MySQL's, then we can easily automate sending the output data to generate graphs or tables without the need of 'expect' script to handle the interactive things. i.e.

    asql -e 'select source, sum(size) from logs group by source' > ip_tr +affic.dat

    thanks

      The way I do that is via the --file=xxx option, that lets me load data and run reports.

      But the idea of -e/--execute is good, I guess that would suggest a --load=/var/log/apache/access.log* flag to go along with it, because otherwise you'd need to edit the startup file to load the data first!

      I'll add both flags, and send you a PM when they're present. Sometime today I'm sure :)
