I think there's not much use in keeping separate logfiles per day. So instead, cat * | gzip > allmylogs.gz or something like that. Assuming that you started with a load of text-format logfiles, then this command would concatenate them together into a single large text-format logfile, and then gzip it. Actually, I'm not very good at unix-style command-lines, so I do it one by one. On Windows, to concatenate them from the command line, you can do copy jan1.log + jan2.log + jan3.log + jan4.log alljan.log gzip allgan.log But that's kind of tedious. So I use "unix command line utilities for win32" (search for it on google) so I can use cat instead of copy. -- Lucian +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help/unsubscribe.html | | Digest version: http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help-digest/ | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives +------------------------------------------------------------------------
