actually we used a ibm ps/2 model 30 (with the 8088 processor, yes!!)
to log ascii info from a machine. the 20 meg hard drive was empty except
for dos and kermit, and this respirator was spitting out metabolic info
every 30 seconds... kermit kept logging for 3 days.., about 2.5 days
longer than we expected it to go.
could you not between kermit activations renaem the log files so you have
a series of them, or is this one kermit invocation?
