I assume that what you are suggesting is that some
text pointing the user to /var/log/cron.log be added,
not actually displaying the log file. Is this correct?
I am hesitant to display the contents of the log
file because it adds to the text displayed, and there
have been a number of problems reported simply
because users do not read the output of the
script carefully. In addition, the log can get
long.
