[erlang-questions] error_logger

[eigenfunction]

Thank you very much for the quick answer, to which the next question
follows:
how do i read the binary-reports offline? I have copied the folder
errors.log to another directory, let's say /tmp
and am starting the erlang shell with erl -boot  start_sasl -sasl
error_logger_mf_dir "\"tmp/error_logs\"" error_logger_mf_maxfiles 5
error_logger_mf_maxbytes 10&.
It just overrides the previous files that were there and shows me the
newly created ones.
Any idea?
