Log [:log]

The Log command synchronously logs text, phonemes, or syllables into a log file. The log file, called log.txt, can be found in the current directory. When opening a log file, DECtalk Software checks to see if the system is in startup mode. If it is in one of the special text-to-speech modes (wave-file, log-file, or speech-to-memory) instead, this command fails.
