Err... that would cause problems if someone was reading the syslog
output as it would no longer be logged (from uprintf(9)):
The uprintf() function outputs to the current process' controlling tty,
while printf() writes to the console as well as to the logging facility.
I personally like reading syslog output more than I do like
reading the console because messages can get lost on the console
quicker :/... Is there a hybrid option?
Thanks!
