I was just setting up some logging in a make script and decided to give the built-in logging module a go, but I just found out that the base StreamHandler always puts a newline at the end of each log. There is a comment in the code that says "The record is then written to the stream with a trailing newline [N.B. this may be removed depending on feedback]"... I guess there wasn't the feedback to drive the change.
All I'm after is the ability to log things like... Compiling 'shrubbery.c'... [DONE] where the "[DONE]" was added later in time than the "Compiling...", and the output goes to both stdout and to a log file. ie: I want to tee my print statements and keep the ability to skip the trailing newline. I had rolled my own primitive version than decided to try the logging module for kicks. Anyone have a suggestion on how to get logging to work like this? Or know of a way to tee in Windows without forcing other users to install a tee package? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
