Log files in sub-folders
 
I was attepmpting to set up a log, and the file name/location was
planned to be: SysLog/NameOfFile.txt

1. Setting it up like this the first attempt, created no log.
2. I then manually created the directory (/SysLog/) and it created
the file (NameOfFile.txt) but would not actually catch text.
3. I changed the log from SysLog/Name... to just Name... -- this
created the file in my main directory and logging did work.

Is it possible to have the files in a sub directory and actually
catch a log? I didnt find much help in the help-files.

Use instead of /

#log syslognameoflog.txt

will put the log file into the Syslog Directory under your Zmud Directory

PostPosted: Sun Dec 13, 2009 5:05 pm   similar issue, different results
 
i have been using the following:

#LOG %concat( %time( "mm/dd/yy"), ".txt")

zMUD tells me it's logging and the date is always correct, but the .txt disappears into the ether. i have searched my entire hard drive and double checked every txt file on it with no result

then i tried what was posted here and added logs so it would save them in that specific directory using:

#LOG logs%concat( %time( "mm/dd/yy"), ".txt")

same result, and zMUD responds with "log is on: logs12/13/09.txt"

help, i don't know much of anything about programming...
