Log File

With the exception of the spinning emoji and the program progress messages, all the terminal output is written to segul.log file saved in the current working directory. In the log output, however, it is also include the time and the log status. For example, our terminal output is as follow:

=========================================================
SEGUL v0.12.0
An alignment tool for phylogenomics
---------------------------------------------------------
Input dir         : oliveros_et_al2019/
File counts       : 4,060
Input format      : Nexus

Task              : Sequence format conversion

🌘 Finished converting sequence format!

segul does not overwrite the log file. Each time you run the app, if the log file exists in the same working directory, it will append the log output into the same file. If you would like to keep a different log file for a different task, you either move the file to a different folder or rename it.
