I have a site on a server which produces log files in what seems to
be plain text (type .log) and compressed (type .gz). Analog handles
these just fine but the server only keeps them for three weeks. I'd
like to be able to download these on a weekly basis and merge the
files to produce a monthly (or longer period) report. I realise I
can't just duplicate the files or I'd get repeat entries.

You don't need to merge the logfiles - Analog can read multiple
logfiles.

So if I download a file containing data for weeks 1, 2 and 3 and the next week download the file which by then will contain weeks 2, 3 and 4, do you mean that Analog will not count double for weeks 2 and 3?



The simplest solution is add the "historical" files to a zip file, and
just run Analog against this zip file.

The files are small at present but I'm not sure I understand what you mean by this. Sorry - I'm no doubt being dim.
