ConEmu build: 210912 x64
OS version: Windows 10 x64
Used shell version (Far Manager, git-bash, cmd, powershell, cygwin, whatever): Various
Problem description
Currently we can set console logging to a file (via Settings:Features) either to On for all new consoles or Off - this is rarely very useful as it will only produce useful results when set to on, a single new console is created the task(s) that it is desirable and then that console is exited and the logging turned off.
It would be much more useful to have any, or several, of a command, menu item, button or hotkey to enable & disable console logging for the current console. This would be of great help in things like debugging complex build processes, making tutorials, etc. - currently the closest is to use, (on Windows), something like command > build.log 2>&1 but this does not allow the user to see the output or any prompts and does not timestamp the output. On Posix platforms the tee command can be used but this is not available on windows by default.
Personally, I think that this would be much more useful & used than the current settings::features mechanism.
