I just knew this was comming, but it is actualy true, there is no need for
it but to please me. and to make a little perl script happy, the perl script
makes a list of dates and days the mud been down, and it looks for files
names like DD-MM-YYYY.log in the log directory, so if no log exist then the
mud has been down that day, i know i could just make the script try connect
to the mud, but i dident want that for 2 reasons, 1. simply wana try it in
c, 2. it make the log 2 lines bigger when ever it runs, like connection from
localhost, disconnected from localhost, i would rathere have:
00:00:00 - Log for DD-MM-YYYY Created.
and then latere same day at 23:59:59 or even +1 sec.
23:59:59 - Log for DD-MM-YYYY Ended.

Who sad it would be empty?  I believe I was thinking about empty for needed
data.

hope you can give ideas, or even more flames about my post.
