date and time in a log file

[sumncguy]

I would like to create a log file using

log_file <somename>.log
.
.
.
.
log_file

Where somename contains the date and time.


The Ksh equivalent :
set `date`
nam=`echo $2""$3""$4 | sed 's/\://g'`

the result would be $nam.log
Jun15165115.log

set nam "[ clock format [ clock seconds ] -format "%Y-%m-%d" ].log"

(I suggest revers date for easier sorting)
