[Slogger] Some success on Mac OSX

Slogger stopped working for me while ago, all the URLs were
'about:blank'. I had a look at it today, and I've had some success.
I'm using Slogger v0.6.20060410 and Firefox v1.5.0.2 on Mac OSX
10.4.5.

I was using $url in the save file. If I don't use it, then slogger
works fine. If I use $url, I get entries in the slogger log, but no
actual file saved. I think the problem is '/' in the url. Since Mac
OSX is a Unix-based operating system, '/' is used in paths as a
directory seperator. I think the problem is that if slogger tries to
create the file
"http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/05/05/075237_2006-05-05-13:31:45.html"
in the directory "/Users/rory/Library/Application
Support/Firefox/Profiles/i5cokw88.default/Logs/data/2006-05-05/", the
'/'s in the file will cause it to fail.

I would like to be able to store the full URL in the filepath, is
there some way to replace '/' in $url with something else (like '_' or
whatever)?
