You need to provide more information in order for someone to give you a useful answer... for insance:
1. Which shell to use
2. File name of log file(s) to search
3. Where to save output file
4. Will the script take command line input for parameters or will it prompt the user
5. A sample log file will also be extremely valuable in order to formulate a solution

how are the logs generated and by what applications. Look at sending your log events through syslog/rsyslog and have it process those logs and do what you need.
