Do clamscan write any log about the infected files?

I run clamscan (clamav) yesterday, it took a whole day to check the file system. Unfortunately I haven't redirected the output to a file, as I waited for the summary. The summary said I have 51 infected files. But when I tried to copy the huge amount of output from the RoxTerm console window, RoxTerm crashed. So the output is lost.

Should I run clamscan again, and redirect the output to a text file to figure out the path of infected files, or are there any logs which are automatically created?

clamscan has an command line option for that,  -l or --log , check https://man.archlinux.org/man/clamscan.1 for details

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
