How can I log the result of a shell script into a log file?
I want to log every hour the result of “top” command to a log file.
do shell script “date >> /test.log” – will log the date
do shell script “top”
set top_report to result
do shell script “echo top_report >> /test.log”
Something like this will log the date and on the next line will be top_report.
The log will read:
Thu Nov 18 13:32:27 EST 2004
top_report
What I’m looking for is
Thu Nov 18 13:32:27 EST 2004

Can anybody help me with this (should be easy) script?
