Just a bit more of a note on this ...
The log files were developed for troubleshooting and beta testing.
They're there to catch mistakes or CYA. That is why, if you use PoP.LOG
in your setup, it is overwritten each time you download mail. And that
is why, if nothing goes wrong with PPP connection, PPP.LOG is cleaned
off your disk when you successfully exit Arachne.
I believe the History. lst as currently configured was also set up more
for debugging and beta testing than for end-user utility. I'm hoping
that 1.60 will have a history list that actually shows you the last
place you visited, the place that made you crash in the first place. <G>
