You're right that the Record class doesn't seem entirely appropriate for the effect I'm trying to achieve. I want to modify the output of the configured BuildLogger write to stdout, just like `ant -emacs` does in the Main class (as opposed to filtering the output and writing to a file). Controlling settings on the logger via a property is the best way I can come up to achieve this (there is a precendent with a property like java.compiler). I'm not really sure what to do at this point, and could use some direction. If there is something that I can clarify in the explanation of my situation, please ask. I am very willing to write code to put this feature in place. Thanks, Daniel
