If you just want to transfer the datalog and put it in a text file you
can use the nqc command:
nqc -datalog
This will upload the datalog and print it to stdout. Use your shell I/O
redirection to put it in a file...
nqc -datalog >my.log
Normally only the data values are displayed, but if you also want to see
what source the values came from use -datalog_full instead of -datalog.
As with any nqc commands, use the -S option to specify a different
serial port (or USB device).
AFAIK, BricxCC has a nice interface for datalogs, so that's probably the
best way to go if you just want to view the log, but if you want to
script it, then the nqc command should work fine.
