Until I added the fd.flush() to the Python code, I found that the output
was being buffered until the script got an EOF. I added the time.sleep(.75)
to prevent the script from grabbing a ton of CPU. 

#! /usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import sys
import time
import syslog

[code:355m17ld]fd = open('/tmp/rsyslogomoutput.txt', 'a')
fd.write("Opened logfile\n")
while True:
    line = sys.stdin.readline()
    if line:
        fd.write("Received: %s" % (line))
        fd.flush()
    else:
      break
    time.sleep(0.75)

fd.close()[/code:355m17ld]
