I'd try to answer your question, but I don't understand what it is you are trying to ask. Could you clarify it a little more?

How do you get a log, you know, so you see everything from starting up to shutting down. like the "Loading compiled script fps/data/editor/blah blah" stuff. In terminal (Console for windows users) (If you don't know what i'm talking about, the program that runs ded. servers.

that clear it up for you?

If I understand you correctly... what you do is:
launch the executable with the argument "-console" (without the "")

In the root directory for the game (IE: c:\Games\Orbz\) there is a file named "console.log". That contains all the information you are asking for, and this is true for any game that uses the Torque engine (unless the team made MAJOR engine changes).

Oh, and if you want to see it in-game, press '~'.
