RE: managing log files

[Dave Collins <Dave.Collins@...>]

Doh! I just realized that a unique log file with each session is trivial - I don't need rolling at all! 

My sessions have unique ids! All I have to do is include the session id as part of the filename.

Awesome. Thanks.

Hm. Not quite what I was looking for. It is designed to rollover based on filesize. I wanted it to rollover with each new session.

Ah well. Better than nothing I suppose.

Alas. It says v1.2.0 is the version where they added rolling file appending, yet the latest downloadable release is 1.1.4 .

Well the docs should be updated to point at the GitHub downloads, so here is the link [1] to the release.
I would just use LuaRocks though, if you can.
