Hi all,

Following a recent thread on converting existing log files into do
files, I created a program, -log2do2-, which is a new utility to do
this.

This program uses the -file- command, rather than reading the log file
into memory as a set of string variables.  Further, it reads the files
character-by-charater in binary mode.  This means that it is able to
preserve references to local macros in the original syntax.

The program also deals with -foreach- and -forvalues- blocks of code,
which are not preceeded by ". " or "> " in log files.

Available from SSC.
