Hi, There are two task here: as You wrote, firstly log must be written to files You could use the logging subsystem for this purpose https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html The second is to collect it and do someting. To do this You can use for example the scedule module https://docs.python.org/3/library/sched.html BR, George _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
