Any reason you're not using the logging module and get it all nicely dumped

I'm an old fart. What can I say? BITD, (as Irmen is well aware, being
about as old as I am in Python years), print was all we had. (We also
walked uphill to school in both directions, in the snow.) While I use
the logging module in other contexts, I never really liked it, and
generally use it grudgingly.

My approach was much like yours but I was converted a couple of years
ago. Sadly both the name of the author and the title of the article
left, as the late, great Spike Milligan said in one of his books, "an
indelible blank on my mind" :)
However in an attempt to show that you can teach a fellow old fart new
tricks could an article like this help

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
