Hi, thanks for the awesome job here. I would be interested in logging file transfers from the macintosh to a USB device. Is the software capable of logging in which usb device the file has been transfered/logging the event? Thanks in advance.

Hi! It should be possible by analyzing the path and the sequence of operation: in order to move/copy a file to a USB device it need first to be accessed by the current location and then be created in a mounted volume. This should be possible to implement as an additional feature. I will leave this open and work on it when I have time, thanks :)
