What is the logfile format?

Tinydns and dnscache logfiles are not designed to be human readable. 
The logfile formats have been documented by Rob Mayoff in the webpages
listed above.
At this stage, Dan Bernstein does not appear to have documented the
logfile format in detail himself.
There are two logfile formatters listed at http://tinydns.org./ that
turn the gibberish into something more readable.
