Hi all

Maybe it's a habit, but if so, I'll want an alternative. I find it easier to read the LIST STAT output, than to use SET to look at the open indexes etc at runtime, while debugging/investigating. I don't want the output to dump on the screen. So I often LIST STAT TO STAT.TXT NOCONSOLE. I can type that so fast it is almost instinct. However, I'm leaving little stat.txt files around, and that bugs me.

What I'm thinking of is a utility that would make this cleaner. I'm imagining instantiating an object, having it LIST STAT TO uniquefilename.TXT NOCONSOLE, open the uniquefilename.txt in a unique window - and stay instantiated until I close the window. I can see having more than one open at a time - as in - I have some tables open so I LIST STAT and then I close one or more and open different ones, and want to see the stat now, or I want to compare two status listings, one before a process and one after, etc.

If such a thing is not extant, then let's make it.

Thanks
