Hi there,

I need to save interaction logging data from my projector to a text file… and am struggling to find an answer!

Is there any free solution to this - I know there are wrappers like zinc but this is the only extra functionality I need so I’d rather find another way.  
I know you can use php to write text to file, but presumably this would need a server to work - and this project is a just a locally running projector. I was wandering if there might be a way involving fscommand and an applescript?

Any thoughts much appreciated!

Sam.
