LogEx plugin

[jpderuiter]

I have created a new Logging plugin:
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/LogEx_plug-in

With this plugin you can:
- Open a new or existing logfile, and append strings to it.
- Copy this string to the Status Listbox and/or Statusbar. (like DetailPrint)
- Append an existing file to the log file (esp. usefull when executing a console app)
--- Add a prefix to each new line of this file.
--- Choose which lines from this file to append.

Example:

code:


LogEx::Init /NOUNLOAD "$TEMP\log.txt"

LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD "Write this line to the log file only"

LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD "Write this line to the log file and the status list box" true

LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD "Write this line to the log file, the status list box and \

    the statusbar" true true

LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD 'Write complete "dir" output to the log file with ">" as prefix'

ExecDos::exec 'cmd /C dir' "" "$TEMP\output.log"

LogEx::AddFile /NOUNLOAD "$TEMP\output.log" ">"

LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD 'Write "dir" output from line3 to the log file'

ExecDos::exec 'cmd /C dir' "" "$TEMP\output.log"

LogEx::AddFile /NOUNLOAD "$TEMP\output.log" "" 3

LogEx::Write /NOUNLOAD 'Write "dir" output from line3 to line6 to the log file'

ExecDos::exec 'cmd /C dir' "" "$TEMP\output.log"

LogEx::AddFile /NOUNLOAD "$TEMP\output.log" "" 3 6

LogEx::Close

Please give your comments.
