/*
 * Routines for logging error messages or other informative messages.
 *
 * Log messages can easily contain the program name, a time stamp, system
 * error messages, and arbitrary printf-style strings, and can be directed
 * to stderr or a log file.
 *
 * Author: Stephen McKay
 *
 * NOTICE: This is free software.  I hope you get some use from this program.
 * In return you should think about all the nice people who give away software.
 * Maybe you should write some free software too.
