:S
I'm trying to use a log file to help debug a program. Tried using MSG, but the right side of the screen fills up so much that I can't see the gui window.

I've successfully written to a log file, but have trouble finding the log file after I've written it.

Is there a way to force the log file to write itself in the current folder, the same folder that contains the current .ngc file?

Thanks

When a user logs in they are taken to their home directory. Unless you change that, any logs etc will be written there.

echo $PWD in a terminal, will always come up with /home/tom unless you conciously cd somewhere else

The ngc files and configs are found through paths, set in the ini file or just hardcoded (like ~/configs being where the configs are expected to be)
The directory you are working from is unchanged.

Thanks.

I guess I'm very used to the Windows file tree, and it's a bit hard getting used to the linux file tree. Although I run a few web sites, and can usually find my way through the file tree on the servers.
