Slipdial logfile

I have just noticed that my Slipdial logfile goes back over a year, and is
about 55k!

Is it self-trimming, or do I need to trim it manually?  If so how? as the
only menu option is Clear, which I assume deletes the entire log-file.

There must be a problem with your setup - that's far too short ;-)

(mine's over half a meg, although it does go back 2 years).

You should be able to load the file (!slipdial.logfile) into an editor
and lop the beginning off.

Stuart.
