Take a look at the package  SessionLog.m.n Contained in the
AddOns/ExtraPackages/ProgrammingInMathematica directory of the standard
Mathematica 3 distribution. This might do what you want.

Here are the usage messages from that package:

OpenLog::usage = "OpenLog[filename, opts..] starts logging  all input
and output to filename."

CloseLog::usage = "CloseLog[] closes the logfile opened by OpenLog[]."


The package is described in detail in Maeder's Book, "Programming in
Mathematica"
