Analog, by default, reads whatever log files you give it and produces a report.
What I think you are looking for is Analog's cache file feature. See http://analog.cx/docs/cache.html for information on it. Also check the archives of this list (links at the bottom of the message) for some suggestions and best practices for using the feature.

Certain other logfile analyzers can be run in in an "update" mode which adds new log information to an existing report. From reading through the FAQs and documentation, I don't see any references to such a mode in Analog or whether it's simply an implied, default behavior.
My current setup of Analog has me outputting reports in computer-readable format to a file called report.dat which I then feed to ReportMagic. I would like to be able to run Analog, have it add the new information to report.dat, and then be free to delete/turnover/rotate my logfiles.
I do apologize if this is covered somewhere in the FAQ or documentation; I read quite a bit of it but it's a lot of information and it's possible I skipped over it. While it's possible to answer my own question experimentally, I figured emailing this list would be quicker.
My gut tells me it's the default behavior, but I just want to be sure.
Thanks in advance,
