Hi,

just want to let you know that I found the log-rotation part in:
https://www.gnugk.org/gnugk-manual-4.html


4.9 Section [LogFile] <https://www.gnugk.org/gnugk-manual.html#toc4.9>

This section defines log file related parameters. Currently, it allows
users to specify log file rotation options.


   - Filename=/var/log/gk_trace.log
   Default: N/A

   Set the output filename for the log file (same as -o on the command
   line). On Windows, backslashes in the file name have to be escaped.

   *This setting doesn't change when the config is reloaded!*
   - Rotate=Hourly | Daily | Weekly | Monthly
   Default: N/A

   If set, the log file will be rotated based on this setting. Hourly
   rotation enables rotation once per hour, daily - once per day, weekly -
   once per week and monthly - once per month. An exact rotation moment is
   determined by a combination ofRotateDay and RotateTime variables. During
   rotation, an existing file is renamed to CURRENT_FILENAME.YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS,
   where YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS is replaced with the current timestamp, and new lines
   are logged to an empty file. To disable rotation, do not configure the
   Rotate parameter or set it to 0.

   *Example 1 - rotate every hour (00:45, 01:45, ..., 23:45):*

   [LogFile]
   Rotate=Hourly
   RotateTime=45
   Filename=/var/log/gk_trace.log

   *Example 2 - rotate every day at 23:00 (11PM):*

   [LogFile]
   Rotate=Daily
   RotateTime=23:00
   Filename=C:\\Logs\\GnuGk.log

   *Example 3 - rotate every Sunday at 00:59:*

   [LogFile]
   Rotate=Weekly
   RotateDay=Sun
   RotateTime=00:59

   *Example 4 - rotate on the last day of each month:*

   [LogFile]
   Rotate=Monthly
   RotateDay=31
   RotateTime=23:00
