From my experience, you don't need to create the log file first.

Where did I say that you did? It depends (OBVIOUSLY) on what you want to do. If you want to create a new file each time, overwriting any other with the same name, then you WOULD use the > symbol. If you want to create a file if it does not yet exist, OR add text to the end if it does already exist, you would use >>.


Nice tips
