One possibility here is to use the -dolog- package, which you can
download from SSC (if you want the Stata 12 version), or from my website
(if you want the Stata 11, 10, 9, 8, 7 or 6 versions). The -dolog-
package is used to execute do-files not containing any -log open- or
-log close- statements, and supplies these for the user, specifying text
logs. So, if you have installed -dolog-, then you can type
dolog mydofile
and Stata will execute -mydofile.do-, and send the output to a text log
file -mydofile.log-.
I hope this helps.
Best wishes

Because Stata in its wisdom decided that the .smcl format was the better default. For some, it may be, but not for me. So, use the -text- option when beginning a log.
