Session Logging

UIPACK provides a mechanism whereby all input to an Application Program may be logged to a file. Logging differs from Learning (see previous section) in that logging can only be enabled or disabled by the Application Program and not by the Operator, and that all input is logged, rather than just the direct input from the Operator (as is the case for learning). Thus a Log File is in general not suitable for later use as an Indirect Command File unless no references to Indirect Command Files are made during the session. Log Files have the default file extension .UIL and file UIPACK.UIL will be created by default if a null file specification is given when Logging is enabled.
