memo is overwriting its output file #82

Closed nthallen closed 4 years ago

nthallen commented 4 years ago

Is this a new problem? I was pretty sure this was not happening before, but today, everytime I start up the Bootstrap tmux_test.sh, I get a brand new Bootstrap.log. memo should absolutely be appending.

This actually applies to everything using the msg.oui -o option (and the msg.oui usage should note that it will append to the specified output file)

The overwriting is a non-issue: it was written into Bootstrap's interact_tmux.sh during early testing where we were doing lots of startup/shutdown and just wanted to look at the latest info.

That said, we have decided that we need a blank line and a dateline at the start of any -o file.
