Details

ilog is a two-step function that allows you a record of your console. A log is a file containing what you type and console output. If a name is not specified, then ilog will use the name <unnamed>.txt.

ilog opens a log file and ilog.close close the file.

Warnings:

However, clearing objects from the workspace along with hidden objects removes ilog's .logenv environment, hence throwing an error when it's attemptted to be closed. An error message Error in (function (cmd, res, s, vis) : object '.logenv' not found will be thrown.

In that case, console prompt is stuck at log> . If this error occurs, use ilogClearPrompt() function to revert back to normal.
