There are limitations to monitoring a job by reading the log file, in particular it is difficult<br />

to extract trends over a long period of time<br />

The foamLog script is therefore provided to extract data of residuals, iterations, Courant<br />

number etc. from a log file <strong>and</strong> present it in a set of files that can be plotted graphically<br />

The user must run the application in the following manner:<br />

simpleFoam . pitzDaily > log<br />

Where the log file can be named arbitrarily<br />

The script is executed by<br />

foamLog <br />

The files are stored in a subdirectory of the case directory named logs<br />
