| # part one
| diary log_test1 # as example
| ...
| ...
| diary off # untill here, everything works fine
| fid = fopen("log_test1","r");
| ...
| ...
| ...
| fclose(fid) # everything ok till here
| 
| # part two
| diary log_test2 # ERROR: diary can't open log_test2

| why this error, if I run only the second part, it works!
| If I run only the first part, it works too, but not if I run
| both parts together.
