Watching the > event.log with tail -f is somewhat annoying. Understood! I've committed changes that that I think should do the trick for you. - In debug mode, a log handler is added to the root logger that writes events to standard error. This is no longer conflated with the "startup" logging. - When running Zope using "zopectl fg" (the best way to run things for debugging), zopectl will force debug mode to be enabled. > > - In debug mode, use an alternate or auxillary logging configuration to > > replace or augment the <eventlog> configuration section.

I don't know that I'd describe this as academic (most academics I've worked with considered the ability to change the code configuration enough), but if you're happy not to need it, I'm happy not to implement it. ;-) -Fred -- Fred L.
