'\"
'\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk
'\" manual entries.
'\"
'\" .AP type name in/out ?indent?
'\"	Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
'\"	type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",
'\"	or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg,
'\"	and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be
'\"	needed;  use .AS below instead)
'\"
'\" .AS ?type? ?name?
'\"	Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops.  Type and
'\"	name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
'\"	to .AP later.  If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.
'\"
'\" .BS
'\"	Start box enclosure.  From here until next .BE, everything will be
'\"	enclosed in one large box.
'\"
'\" .BE
'\"	End of box enclosure.
'\"
'\" .CS
'\"	Begin code excerpt.
'\"
'\" .CE
'\"	End code excerpt.
'\"
'\" .VS ?version? ?br?
'\"	Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
'\"	of man pages.  The first argument is ignored and used for recording
'\"	the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
'\"	found and removed when they reach a certain age.  If another argument
'\"	is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
'\"
'\" .VE
'\"	End of vertical sidebar.
'\"
'\" .DS
'\"	Begin an indented unfilled display.
'\"
'\" .DE
'\"	End of indented unfilled display.
'\"
'\" .SO
'\"	Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget.  The
'\"	options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated
'\"	by tabs.
'\"
'\" .SE
'\"	End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
'\"
'\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
'\"	Start of description of a specific option.  cmdName gives the
'\"	option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives
'\"	the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives
'\"	the option's class in the option database.
'\"
'\" .UL arg1 arg2
'\"	Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally.

\fB::logger::utils::applyAppender\fR \fB-appender\fR \fIappenderType\fR ?\fIoptions\fR...?
This command will create an appender for the specified logger
services. If no service is specified then the appender will be added
as the default appender for the specified levels. If no levels are
specified, then all levels are assumed.
.sp
.RS
.TP
\fB-service\fR loggerservices
.TP
\fB-serviceCmd\fR loggerserviceCmds
Name of the logger instance to modify. \fB-serviceCmd\fR takes as
input the return of \fBlogger::init\fR.
.TP
\fB-appender\fR appenderType
Type of the appender to use.
One of \fBconsole\fR, \fBcolorConsole\fR.
.TP
\fB-conversionPattern\fR pattern
See \fB::logger::utils::createFormatCmd\fR for the

.sp
Example of usage:
.sp
.nf

   % set log [logger::init testLog]
   ::logger::tree::testLog
   % logger::utils::applyAppender -appender console -serviceCmd $log

   [2005/08/22 10:14:13] [testLog] [global] [error] this is an error

.fi
.TP
\fB::logger::utils::autoApplyAppender\fR \fIcommand\fR \fIcommand-string\fR \fIlog\fR \fIop\fR \fIargs\fR...
This command is designed to be added via \fBtrace leave\fR to calls
of \fBlogger::init\fR. It will look at preconfigured state (via
\fB::logger::utils::applyAppender\fR) to autocreate appenders for
newly created logger instances.
It will return its argument \fIlog\fR.
.sp
Example of usage:
.sp
.nf

  logger::utils::applyAppender -appender console
  set log [logger::init applyAppender-3]
  ${log}::error "this is an error"
