Where is the Source Tool error log?

I am trying to export a very complicated Blender model to SFM. When the export fails, the Source Tools display a detailed log of the warnings and errors that it encountered. I want to preserve this log, but it won't print and can't be saved. It disappears once the window closes. I looked in the Blender console, and it wasn't sent there.

How can I find this error log?

You can also find the operator by searching in the search popup.

Try toggleing the system console.it should tell you what the error is.which can be a variety of things(like bad command.cant load smd/DMX file.missing the / or ")
Also I hear it's a complicated model.try using a DMX format which has an option to lower the weights without going into weight paint more)

Hi ChLoe: Thanks for your reply the suggestion about using DMX.
I've looked in the system console, and the Source Tools doesn't put its warnings/errors there. It displays them in a separate window.
