Hey guys

for now the eggdrop logs the chat from

old
to
new

so the newest is always on bottom.

is there any way, that the eggdrop is saving the chat in reverse mode?

Hello Pauschi,
The short answer to that would be no.

Log posts are appended to the end of the file, as that is the most efficient way to add new data to a file. Prepending the new log post would either require that the whole content of the file be shifted before adding the new post, or in the extreme case; retaining each log post in memory and rewriting the whole log each time a new post is added.
