At SCOPE, though not UNIX, we solved the problem by having the cgi scripts store
relevant data, including preformatted messages depending on the action, into a
database. This db is cross-linked to others to provide a rich basis for
transaction logging.
I did mine in Frontier/Filemaker on a Mac and we also have a port to UNIX/ORACLE
and WINNT/Access but these haven't been thoroughly tested yet.
