Hi Dan,
If we replaced Sed with Cat, I'm a little confused as to what we would be catting; there's a stream coming in, right?
To your second question - yes, logging is fully functional with sudo
To your final question - no, even with a sed command that performs no actions, no logging information is generated.

What's the simplest case that doesn't work? What if you take out the
whole 'sed' command and just use /bin/cat? Does invoking cronolog with
sudo work when not receiving input piped from another command? Does it
work with a simpler sed script?
