Nicko,
As you are probably aware, as of log4j 1.3 will also support pattern words and not just pattern characters. Maybe we could coordinate the names...

Baron,
The list of patterns that the PatternLayout accepts are documented in the log4net-sdk. In the log4net download this is under the doc\sdk directory. See the log4net.Layout.PatternLayout class documentation for details.
The longer pattern names are supported by the latest CVS version of log4net.
Of course documentation is not always our strongest point and we would gratefully accept any help.
Nicko
