You weren't muddying the waters so much, Ross.
I was looking in the parking lot instead of the lake. <g>

Ah. I know exactly what you want now. I had such a program myself once
that kept a continuous log of whatever appeared on my screen to a length
I could preset.
But that worked in TEXT mode.
Arachne works in GRAPHICS mode.
Logging the graphic screen would be hopeless. Maybe there could be a way
to log the source, but that would still be more voluminous than text.
What you need I think is something that would log only the textual part of
the source and log it in text format. Is this correct ?
Maybe accompanied by History.lst ?
My neurons seem to be a bit damp at the moment. I can't get enough firing
to come up with an idea. :(( This problem struck me almost 48 hrs ago when
I saw something interesting on chat that seems to have clogged my system. ;-|
