28 ;;; Commentary:
30 ;; This file implements log file writing support for ERC.
32 ;; Quick start:
34 ;; (setq erc-enable-logging t)
35 ;; (setq erc-log-channels-directory "/path/to/logfiles") ; must be writable
37 ;; There are two ways to setup logging. The first will write to the log files
38 ;; on each incoming or outgoing line - this may not be optimal on a laptop
39 ;; HDD. To do this, M-x customize-variable erc-modules, and add "log".
41 ;; The second method will save buffers on /part, /quit, or killing the
42 ;; channel buffer. To do this, add the following to your .emacs:
44 ;; (require 'erc-log)
46 ;; If you only want to save logs for some buffers, customise the
47 ;; variable `erc-enable-logging'.
49 ;; How it works:
51 ;; If logging is enabled, at some point, `erc-save-buffer-in-logs'
52 ;; will be called. The "end" of the buffer is taken from
53 ;; `erc-insert-marker', while `erc-last-saved-position' holds the
54 ;; position the buffer was last saved at (as a marker, or if the
55 ;; buffer hasn't been saved before, as the number 1 (point-min)).
57 ;; The region between `erc-last-saved-position' and
58 ;; `erc-insert-marker' is saved to the current buffer's logfile, and
59 ;; `erc-last-saved-position' is updated to reflect this.
61 ;;; History:
62 ;; 2003-04-26: logging code pulled out of erc.el. Switched to using
63 ;; markers.
65 ;;; TODO:
67 ;; * Really, we need to lock the logfiles somehow, so that if a user
68 ;; is running multiple emacsen and/or on the same channel as more
69 ;; than one user, only one process writes to the logfile. This is
70 ;; especially needed for those logfiles with no nick in them, as
71 ;; these would become corrupted.
72 ;; For a single emacs process, the problem could be solved using a
73 ;; variable which contained the names of buffers already being
74 ;; logged. This would require that logging be buffer-local,
75 ;; possibly not a bad thing anyway, since many people don't want to
76 ;; log the server buffer.
77 ;; For multiple emacsen the problem is trickier. On some systems,
78 ;; on could use the function `lock-buffer' and `unlock-buffer'.
79 ;; However, file locking isn't implemented on all platforms, for
80 ;; example, there is none on w32 systems.
81 ;; A third possibility might be to fake lockfiles. However, this
82 ;; might lead to problems if an emacs crashes, as the lockfile
83 ;; would be left lying around.
