28;;; Commentary:
29
30;; This file implements log file writing support for ERC.
31
32;; Quick start:
33;;
34;; (setq erc-enable-logging t)
35;; (setq erc-log-channels-directory "/path/to/logfiles") ; must be writable
36;;
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".
40;;
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:
43;;
44;; (require 'erc-log)
45;;
46;; You may optionally want the following code, to save all ERC buffers
47;; without confirmation when exiting emacs:
48;;
49;; (defadvice save-buffers-kill-emacs (before save-logs (&rest args) activate)
50;; (save-some-buffers t (lambda ()
51;; (when (and (eq major-mode 'erc-mode)
52;; (not (null buffer-file-name))) t))))
53;;
54;; If you only want to save logs for some buffers, customise the
55;; variable `erc-enable-logging'.
56
57;; How it works:
58;;
59;; If logging is enabled, at some point, `erc-save-buffer-in-logs'
60;; will be called. The "end" of the buffer is taken from
61;; `erc-insert-marker', while `erc-last-saved-position' holds the
62;; position the buffer was last saved at (as a marker, or if the
63;; buffer hasn't been saved before, as the number 1 (point-min)).
64
65;; The region between `erc-last-saved-position' and
66;; `erc-insert-marker' is saved to the current buffer's logfile, and
67;; `erc-last-saved-position' is updated to reflect this.
68
69;;; History:
70;; 2003-04-26: logging code pulled out of erc.el. Switched to using
71;; markers.
72
73;;; TODO:
74;; * Erc needs a generalised make-safe-file-name function, so that
75;; generated file names don't contain any invalid file characters.
76;;
77;; * Really, we need to lock the logfiles somehow, so that if a user
78;; is running multiple emacsen and/or on the same channel as more
79;; than one user, only one process writes to the logfile. This is
80;; especially needed for those logfiles with no nick in them, as
81;; these would become corrupted.
82;; For a single emacs process, the problem could be solved using a
83;; variable which contained the names of buffers already being
84;; logged. This would require that logging be buffer-local,
85;; possibly not a bad thing anyway, since many people don't want to
86;; log the server buffer.
87;; For multiple emacsen the problem is trickier. On some systems,
88;; on could use the function `lock-buffer' and `unlock-buffer'.
89;; However, file locking isn't implemented on all platforms, for
90;; example, there is none on w32 systems.
91;; A third possibility might be to fake lockfiles. However, this
92;; might lead to problems if an emacs crashes, as the lockfile
93;; would be left lying around.
