I'm not sure I understand the problem described in the wiki. I pieced together 
the following after a quick google search or two (i.e. these rules are probably 
mostly broken garbage):

This works: It will create the file /Users/danielbeck/jenkins.log with 
extremely verbose content, in the custom one line format. I don't know what 
problems the wiki author encountered when they wrote this, but it seems wrong 
or obsolete.
