WebFocus Console Log

Hi All, I need to record Focus activities, as recorded in the console log, in a file for later verification as I will be running jobs un-attended overnight using the 'wfmobile' feature. In my former VM environment, I simply spooled the console of the virtual machine and everything was recorded in the spool file. Is there any equivalent feature when using Webfocus in W2000? Is there any way, apart from writing to a 'log' file yourself, of recording the console output, i.e. the results from table requests, matches, etc. Many thanks for any help.
 
Assuming you're running 'batch' type processing (i.e. no GUI facilities or output), look at the options available with edastart (in the bin directory). This is the program which runs a WebFocus server. If you run 'edastart -?', you can see the available options. Two that come to mind are:

-f <script> Run server with input from file, output to file
input:<script>.t3i output:<script>.t3o

-t Run server with interactive input
Terminal is used for input/output
