Nagios check_log help

Hello

Could some body please help me with this plugin,  and explain what the proper command line arguments should be.

The documentations says:
                                      
Usage: check_log -F logfile -O oldlog -q query
Usage: check_log --help
Usage: check_log --version

i presume -F is the log file I want to check, and -q is the string I am searching the log for.

I have tried 
#./check_log -F test_log -q WARNING
this just goves the following error                
./check_log: test: argument expected.

what is the -O for old log?? I only have 1 log file, is the -O necessary?
the documentation for this plugin is very brief.

Help Apreciated

Stuart
