	{_, _, Usec} = Now = erlang:now(),
	{{Y, Mo, D}, {H, Mi, S}} = calendar:now_to_datetime(Now),
	Stamp =  io_lib:format("~4.4.0w-~2.2.0w-~2.2.0wT~2.2.0w:~2.2.0w:~2.2.0w.~6.6.0w
", [ Y, Mo, D, H, Mi, S, Usec ]),

...

	Log = iolist_to_binary( [ Stamp,
			[ [ <<" ">>, X, <<" ">> ] || X <- [ Login ] ],
			io_lib:format(Format, lists:map( fun filter/1, Args)), Exe, <<"\n">> ]),
