Okay Acorn, lost already.

Somewhere accessible on your local device, save a file called log with a txt extension (log.txt) or as I do log.xara.
If your default text editor is Notepad, use log.txt.
If in my case it is Notepad++, use log.xara and associate Notepad to .xara files (not XAR, do note).
In Notepad++ if I try to save as 'log.xara' it saves as 'log.xara.txt' Is this what you mean?

Further:
If in my case it is Notepad++, use log.xara and associate Notepad to .xara files (not XAR, do note).
Is that associate Notepad to .xara files OR associate Notepad++ to .xara files?
