Tom, Stan, The log files are not just error logging files but a means of reconstructing the current file just before a failure from the last backup file before failure and the log files between them. Agreed it would be nice to have a subfolder of the folder with the main GnuCash data file in it to keep these separate. I always create my data files for mybooks in their own folder so I only end up with the backups and the log files for the particular main data file in that folder. I think it is desirable to retain the direct connection between the backup and log files and the main data file they belong to.
When I do external backups, I backup both the main data file and the backup and log files that i have chosen to retain not just the data file David Cousens ----- David Cousens -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
