channel.log: Channel Log
The channel log contains channel messages. The channel log cannot be
deactivated and is populated by scripts. To direct a message into the channel log,
use the LOG script command:
LOG(LOG_CHAN, $Msg)
The channel log can be viewed only through the Unix command line.
When channel colors are manually changed with the Icon command of the MCC,
a message can be entered which is recorded to this log.
The format of channel.log is as follows:
CYYYYMMDD HHMM Scriptname Message
Where C=Color/Status; YYYYMMDD=Year, Month, Date; HHMM=Hour,
Minute.
For example:
420071204 0829 #dilost D/I BOX LOST.
420071204 0829 #dolost D/O BOX LOST.
This indicates that on December 4 th 2007 at 8:29 AM, the #dilost script logged
the message “D/I BOX LOST” in the channel log. At the same time, the #dolost
script logged the message “D/O BOX LOST” into the channel.log. Both messages
were logged as Status Number 4.
