Log Console Zorb

3 votes

This script is a general Log Console to be used by max scripters, a great way to quicly add information logging to your script Once installed you will have access to the LogConsole by creating an instance (you can create as many as you want) by using something like:

foo = ZorbConsole title:"Log A"

You may open the log by using: foo.showme() And write to the log with the AddLog function like so:

foo.AddLog #("test", "I am testing-General", 0)

The Information may then be filtered by verbosity or by the information origin (handy to add what function is sending the log info)
