Subject: Logging to file for Win95 (Part II)

Here's another way of getting log files for Win95

in utils.c search for the void mudlog part,
and change ..

if (file)
    fprintf(stderr, "%-19.19s :: %s\n", tmp, str);
  printf("%-19.19s :: %s\n", tmp, str);  /*logging, Andy */
  if (level < 0)
    return;

then search for void log
and change ..

ct = time(0);
  tmstr = asctime(localtime(&ct));
  *(tmstr + strlen(tmstr) - 1) = '\0';
  fprintf(stderr, "%-19.19s :: %s\n", tmstr, str);
 printf("%-19.19s :: %s\n", tmstr, str);  /*logging, Andy */
}

Then in your batch file just run the mud with redirected output of
stdout (printf outputs as stdout, and dos can redirect it),

ie.  circle.exe >> log.txt

This will write all the logs to the file, and you will also get it
echoed to your screen!
