Hello, I am using the logging facility to store the output of several processes that are running in parallel. Therefore X11 creates as many files as machines I am using, all the files with a format of XtermLog.a9999, only the last four digits vary from file to file. Is there an easy way to associate each machine with its correspondent log file? do those numbers have some meaning? thanks a lot, Jim Laredo.

There might be collisions, I don't know how they are handled. thanks to Tim Brecht for the hint. Jim.

Try xterm -lf xtermlog.`hostname` or suchlike to specify a different log file name. Collisions are handled badly.
