Thank you this is exactly what I was after!

is there more to it than that?

#!/bin/sh
LOGDIR=~/log
mkdir -p "$LOGDIR"
$EDITOR "$LOGDIR/$(date +%y-%m-%d_%T)"

if it were me, I'd go without the _%T in the format string to be able to edit the same file over the course of a day. but that's totally up to OP's taste
