## Logs page

In the Logs page you can decide where to save your logs and which logs to load at startup (in case there are no logs entered at the command line). Of course, you have to restart xlog and be sure to move your logs there. You can use wildcards or a list of logs separated by a comma. Extension .xlog will be automatically added, e.g. when using wildcards, 'p*' will load all logs starting with 'p' and ending with '.xlog'.

Logs can be loaded by alphabet or by last modification date. In case you use the last option, log loading can be manipulated by using 'touch'.

You can also set the automatic saving method in this page. When selecting autosave, the interval between saving of the logs needs to be selected. Selecting a value of zero will disable autosave: you will need to use 'Ctrl+s' every time a log is changed.
