Found it.  Okay, this is far better than HTTP since it's faster and logging will work just fine on a laptop disconnected to the internet.  Now I need to learn enough about the chat commands to see if I can make things go into one of these files without them appearing on the screen.  But I'm far more confident about that since the documentation seems better.

Oh dear, the timestamp is only accurate to the minute.  Never mind I can get my own 'llGetTime( )' and include that.

Better still, I can separate out the things I want to log from other stuff I don't care about.

Thank you list, especially Neil but everyone who thought about it, for answering my questions.

Simon.
