Logging, in the pork instant messenger

DanielCox · 03-06-2005, 05:16 PM

Hello all! I just recently downloaded and installed the AOL Instant Messenger Client Pork, and have fallen in love with it. However, I can't figure out for the life of me how to log my conversations and chats, which was a really useful feature of the other IM clients I will be leaving behind if i can solve this problem. Pork isn't very well documented, and googling it is more difficult than expected, because the word pork means something else.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If it's not something the programmer felt was useful, I'm guessing it's not in there. Have you tried the /help command inside the program? It may be worth emailling the author.

Oh, I've tried the help command, and then greped the entire help directory for what I'm looking for, but didn't get anything useful. I'm slightly reluctant to email the author, but I guess I'll have to. I'll post the result of that, as soon as possible. Thanks for the reply!

No problem. If it's any consolation, on his website he did say that he dislikes writing documentation.

There isn't any logging functionality natively supported, though there is Perl support, so I wrote my own logger. If anyone else wants it, just drop me a PM. Thanks!
