+#
+# Archive old log files into compressed tarballs.
+#
+# This script is useful when logrotate is unavailable or when application logs
+# need custom archival handling. It does not delete active logs by default.
+#
+# Usage:
+#   bash log_rotate_archive.sh --source /var/log/myapp --archive /backup/logs
+#   bash log_rotate_archive.sh --source ./logs --archive ./archives --older-than-days 3 --delete-originals
+#
+# Options:
+#   --source DIR           Directory containing log files.
+#   --archive DIR          Directory where archives will be stored.
+#   --older-than-days N    Archive files older than N days. Default: 7.
+#   --delete-originals     Delete original files after a successful archive.
+#   --help                 Show this help message.
