logdefault
Description
Closes a log and resets its destination to the default value.
Example 39. Log messages and display log content to the windows system
This example, using inline PIs, will write the words `hello' and 'world" to the log number 7 (LOG7), then display the content of LOG7 to a windows system pop up box:
The quick <?logwrite LOG7 hello> brown fox <?logwrite LOG7
world> jumps over a <?logopen LOG7 SYSTEM> lazy dog.
Putting an <?logclose> at the end of the line would close the log, thus preventing any more writing to it.
