The LOGFORMAT isn't an issue, > as long as it contains the relevant type of item (%B for Browser Report etc.) On the reports page, it says, under "Other Reports", "Whether you can get all of these reports depends on what information is recorded in your logfile." My thought was to include a cross reference with the LOGFORMAT commands for each report listed so you could understand what data was needed by Analog before it would produce that report. For example: The Host Report lists all computers which downloaded files from you. (%S) The Domain Report lists which countries those computers came from. (If you only get ("unresolved numerical addresses", see the FAQ.) (%S) The Request Report (the example above) lists which files were downloaded. (%r) The Directory Report lists which directories those files came from. (%r) However, as there are other dependecies (e.g. %b gives byte counts for these) maybe that's not feasable. Also, it might clutter up the reference too much. -- Jeremy Wadsack OutQuest Magazine a Wadsack-Allen publication This is the analog-help mailing list.

It would make it much easier if links went to bookmarks/anchors within the page. Especially when there's more than one instance of the word (requireing Find, then Find Next, etc), the bookmark can help guide the erader to the exact spot where the topic is covered. -- Jeremy Wadsack OutQuest Magazine a Wadsack-Allen publication This is the analog-help mailing list.

My concern was not too make the page so long that you were just as well off reading through the whole documentation anyway.

Here's a typos I found on the reports page: overall statstics -> overall statistics Also, on that page, it might be useful to list, with each report type, the LOGFORMAT commands/data that Analog needs to generate that report.

Both files (especially reports.html) (well, especially _both_ of them!) are exactly what I need! One additional suggestion - would it be possible to link from the command names in quickref.html and the items in the index to named anchors within the files the links go to? That would be much more useful than having to search the entire page for the command name. thanks much!

Re: [analog-help] New documentation
> I have written a couple more pages for the documentation, in response to > those people who wanted more reference sections. Thanks for that, I will take a closer look at it tomorrow. But one question. You're writing: "At the end of the report you can see which version of analog produced the report, and how long the report took to run." I have installed analog3.3 into the same dir as analog3.11 was. But now the analog3.3-output tells me that it is made with analog3.11. I don't know from there 3.3 gets this information. -- Christoph Dietz - Deutsche Lebens-Rettungs-Gesellschaft e.V.

[analog-help] New documentation
I have written a couple more pages for the documentation, in response to those people who wanted more reference sections. I've made them available on the web, and I would welcome comments on them before I package them up in the next version. You can find them at http://www.statslab.cam.ac.uk/~sret1/analog/docs/reports.html http://www.statslab.cam.ac.uk/~sret1/analog/docs/quickref.html Thanks in advance for any comments. -- Stephen Turner[EMAIL PROTECTED]http://www.statslab.cam.ac.uk/~sret1/ Statistical Laboratory, 16 Mill Lane, Cambridge CB2 1SB, England "Due to the conflict in Kosovo, we will not be showing the movie Wag the Dog.
