Thanks, Robby. Do you mean I could do something like this?
(define (enable-log-output level) (let ([r (make-log-receiver (current-logger) level)]) (thread (lambda () (let loop () (match (sync r) [(vector lvl msg v) (printf "; [~a] ~a\n" lvl msg)]) (loop)))))) (enable-log-output 'debug) If so, then: 1. I don't see what you mean re being able to do more than string munging. `v' is a continuation-mark-set. Is that the struct you mean? But stipulating I could filter in whatever fashion ... 2. Putting this in every source file doesn't seem practical? I'm talking about doing interactive development, using XREPL's ,log command. Open a file, evaluate it, make some changes, maybe use ,log to tweak the log output level, evaluate, move on to another file. That sort of work-flow. 3. I have to ask users of my collections to use code like this, to avoid getting "drowned" in my log-debug output? That doesn't sound good. ,log already does filtering on one "dimension" ("severity") without touching your source, which is great. It seems odd to have to use per-file code, in order to filter on another dimension ("facility" or "module").
