Logging Child Windows
 
I'm sure I have just missed something obvious here, But i find that the stuff I #GAG out when it goes to a child window, does not end up going to the logfile. Is there a way to make sure it still gets logged?

If I recall correctly because the #GAG command deletes content from in MUD output it's never received by the logger. One option is to explicity #WRITE it using the following command.

Untested but should give the general idea. Assuming you pattern match a the line to GAG in

#FILE 1 MyLogFile.txt
#WRITE 1 %line
#GAG

Is there a way to start secondary log files for the child windows atconnect, then append those to the end of the current main log file atdiscconect?

I use this for logging currently:

#alias atconnect {#LOG %replace( %title, " ", "")-%char-%time( "mm-dd-yy").txt}

#alias atconnect {#EXEC {%concat(":ChildWindow:#LOG {",%replace( %title, " ", ""),"-",%char,"-",%time( "mm-dd-yy").".txt}")}}
