[NewDisplayName]

Hey, is it possible to only display the output of "logger text here" when the text changes?

 

I have a script which runs eery 5 minutes, now it displays mostly the same, is it possible to only display it when it changes?

 

Is there any documention about logger?

Would require you to parse the syslog file, looking for identical lines and replace them akin to what happens when  you run diagnostics.

 

Probably easier way would be to modify the logic of your script to not output if the previous line was the same, and instead of running it every 5 minutes, run it once in a continual loop with a 5 minute sleep period between cycles
