Or use the logging module. It's easy to get going quickly
(just call logging.basicConfig at startup time), and with
a little care and feeding, you can control the output in
more ways than can fit into the margin. Oh, yeah, I'm sure
it introduces some overhead. So does everything else.
I hate log files, at least during development or testing. I prefer to debug on
the command line or using my IDE. Log files are for release time, not
development.
Rick, you should give the logging module a try. The default
configuration from basicConfig is that the messages all go to stderr, so
no log files to deal with. And it's configurable in the ways you want,
plus a lot more.
