Me too. Does anyone know (just looking for ballpark percentages here)
how much more space this will take up by turning on logging for NM File
Close? My concern here is that every time someone runs a program or
executes a command file, might that count as an open/close combination?
And if so, do all those events get logged as well, or is logging
restricted to programmatic (other than the CI) closing/purging of files?

We do log console messages, but also get the occasional request such as,
"Is there any way to find out who deleted this file?" which until now I
didn't know *could* be logged.

Guess I'll turn on logging for events 105 (NM fclose) & 160 (CM fclose)
when I get a chance and watch for a while, we'll just see what we see...
