Option to persist logs?

Open cmars opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Currently logs aren't persisted to files, just written on stdout. Should they be? I have mixed feelings on this one.

On one hand, piping to tee feels like the unix-y way to persist logs.

On the other hand:

  • Windows may not have a tee equivalent (no idea what PS would support here)
  • When distrans ships a UI front-end, a log file becomes more of a necessity
  • Not sure how tee would actually deal with the spinners and progress bars, that might actually make a mess
