SET_LOG_FILE
Use it to save, in a basic text file, everything typed into Thermo‑Calc. When having problems executing a command sequence, this command can be used to save the command typed onto a log file with the file extension *.TCM.
This command also makes the system echo the full command for all commands typed. This feature is useful when demonstrating the system since the abbreviated commands are often difficult.
The saved log file can then be edited as a macro file by using a basic text editor. This is useful to run the macro file(s) for similar calculations (the same system but slightly varied temperature-pressure-composition conditions), or run the example macro files.

Prompt |
A Save window opens to specify a file name for the *.TCM file, so that the path (in the Save in field) and File name can be specified. If a log file with the same name exists in the current working directory, it is overwritten. The Files of type (i.e. TCM) cannot be changed. Click Save or Cancel as applicable. |
