Thank you Klaus Johannes Rusch for your reply. As I said, I am a
programming/coding klutz.
So your reply, which is no doubt very helpful if I could understand it,
<The only solution I can think of without modifying the code is

<cat log | grep -v -f file-with-date-time-patterns-to-exclude | analog <...
means nothing much to me.
Where is stdin, how do I read from it and how do I do a filter?
How would I use a filter (what would that look like?) "as a preprocessor"?
I'm afraid that I am 'drowning' in this strange talk and need a very
large and buoyant life-jacket to help me keep afloat and navigate
through this verbage. Sigh.
Sorry.
