Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Clearing an ifs file

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm still not clear on whether you're doing this in a program or 
interactive.  And, by "the log" do you mean you are using QShell's 
ability to log its output to a file?  Or are you generating a log in 
another way?

The QShell envvar has a directive that you can specify to tell it to 
replace the data vs. append the data.

If you do want to do it yourself, is there any reason not to just delete 
the log when you're done with it?  (Or move it to an archive location?)
