### Optional Parameters
You can pass in two optional parameters to the program. The `clear` option will clear the logs at the default location. Any other argument passed in will be used as the path to the log file for that process. See below:
```bash
# Clear the logfile.
$ sudo keylogger clear
Logfile cleared.
Logging to: /var/log/keystroke.log
# Specify a logfile location.
$ sudo keylogger ~/logfile.txt
Logging to: /Users/Casey/logfile.txt
```
