New submission from Bar Harel <bzvi7...@gmail.com>:
Per discussion on mailing list, I suggest adding a PYTHONLOGGING environment variable, and a matching -L cmdline argument. When set to a logging level of choice, they will initiate basicConfig with the appropriate level. For example, "py.exe -L info" will be equivalent to "logging.basicConfig(level='info')" on interpreter startup. Sames as setting env var "PYTHONLOGGING=info". This matches the current behavior of other settings, such as PYTHONWARNINGS and -W, allows to easily test programs without modifying them, and further completes the expected arguments available from the commandline.
