in reply to Filehandle on rotating log

You can't get there from here.

Rotating the log means that the old file is renamed and then a new file is opened for the new log entries. You will have to change to a model where you open the file, read it and close it each time you want to update your statistics.

Remember, when you stare long into the abyss, you could have been home eating ice cream.

    Ah well. I suppose if it were easy to accomplish, it wouldn't be worth doing.
    Thanks, though.
