Actually... I've come to the conclusion I don't understand at all. Without any logging plugins I still get logs from tcpserver (I'm using daemontools to run it). There are two files in my config directory 'logging' and 'loglevel'. I don't know which one effects the logs produces (yes, I could play around more and work it out but I haven't yet). I have them both at 0 at the moment but both at 3 produced only tcpserver lines too.
The perldoc for your routine says... logterse [prefix char] [loglevel level] It doesn't mention the prefix char, so I don't know what that is. This also seems to give a third place to specify the level.. Which one is used? I don't understand the relevance of "adjunct to the normal logging plugins ". Does this mean some other plugin is required for it to produce logs. Sorry for stupid questions.... I got everything else to work very easily and am suitably impressed but I don't think I'm quite "getting it" with the logging system.
