output the build message console to a text file

Is there a way to redirect the build message console to a text file? I'm building a rather large webhelp project and more than once I haven't been able to copy/paste the 260+ k lines of text because of resources...
Thanks!

Hi,
There is no option or parameter that you can set to redirect the transformation output to a file but you can right-click in the console view in oXygen and use the "Save Results..." action.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Mihaela

Thats what I usually do, but I had a situation the other day where the console was in excess of 250k lines, and I didnt have enough memory to hold it on the clipboard. I suppose I could just copy/paste it in chunks but I figured there had to be a better way. Moving this to the "Please add this feature" section.

Hi Mark,
As a workaround for now you van edit the transformation scenario and in the Advanced tab to set the "Additional arguments" parameter to something like:
The ANT build process will automatically redirect all the build output to that log file.

Hi,
I've logged your request on our issue tracking tool.
Could you please clarify if you have tried to use the "Save Results..." action (to save to a file) from the contextual menu on the console output and that was unsuccessful?
Note that this action does not have anything to do with the clipboard, it simply allows you to save the console output to a file.
Regards,
Adrian
