I was wondering if there is a way to start a session logging when you log into a world.

Thanks,

Yup there is. Just open your world, do Alt+3 and type in a path such as C:\MUSHclient\logs where it says 'Automatically log to this file:'. There's even a browse button there for you to use. :) Use the checkboxes to get it to log what parts you want etc.
That's it, you're done, it'll start logging automatically as soon as you connect to the world.

Thanks Demonsurfer. However what I was actually meaning is completely automatic. I was wondering if there is anything I can to so that as soon as the world opens, it will always log. Am I understanding correctly that by doing it this way, It will only log for that particular time I'm connecting?

Thank you again for you help

The file name in the configuration "Automatically log to this file" is just that - a file to log to automatically every time you connect.

I suggest you use special characters to distinguish log files from each other (eg. date and time) so each session has its own file.

eg. mylogile %Y-%m-%d %H-%M-%S.txt

Press the button labelled "?" to see the possible characters you can use.
