Nice.
I'm using a simple little combo of a shell script and alias to append a line of text to a text file in a known location. The script is just to prepend the line with a timestamp. Stupid and simple, but hey, it works for me.
My aliases:
alias ttag='/cygdrive/c/Dropbox/tools/ttag/ttag.sh'
alias ttagcat='\cat /cygdrive/c/Dropbox/tools/ttag/ttag-logfile.txt'
alias ttago='open /cygdrive/c/Dropbox/tools/ttag/ttag-logfile.txt'
The shellscript:
1 │ LOGFILE=/cygdrive/c/Dropbox/tools/ttag/ttag-logfile.txt
2 │ TIMESTAMP_NICE=$(date +"%F %H.%M.%S - %s:")
3 │ echo $TIMESTAMP_NICE "$@" >> $LOGFILE
