Could you elaborate on your constraints please? It seems that you
can produce and retrieve log files, so why can't you use
-outreg- combined with an ascii log, and also have in the do file a
command that does a system call to -type- the outreg file (the
output of which would be echoed to the log)? (Alternatively, if you can
retrieve log files, why can't you retrieve files that -outreg- would
write?)
