Logfile with timestamp

[mcnobrain]

Hello

I would like to have a logfile with date and timestamp in the filename.

i already tried this "c:\Log\Sync_%Date%_%Time%.log"

the variable date will be set correct but the timestamp does not work.

any idea ?

Thanks

Hi,

From the BC3-helpfile (Section "Automating with Scripts"):

There are several dynamic variables that Beyond Compare can fill in at each line of the script. The %date% variable fills in the current date in the format yyyy-mm-dd. The %time% variable's format depends on your computer's regional settings. The %fn_time% variable outputs the time as hh-mm-ss, which can be used for filenames.

Hope this helps ...

Bye
Christoph
