    /**
     * Simple logging facility.  All output goes straight to stdout, unlike the
     * old multi-log system.  Generally we expect any program complex enough to
     * want to use this will have other facilities for processing the logging
     * output, but if we need it we can add other output methods.
     *
     * Currently implemented as a singleton to avoid clutter with globals, you
     * generally never want to use the logging system directly, it's annoying.
     * Instead use the handy macros lineLog, setLogMask, setLogFormat, and
     * setLogLevel.  They do all the real work for you.
     *
     * In the log format, you can specify extra information that will be written
     * to the log with every message, and extras in printf style.  Use %X flags
     * where X is one of the following:
     * - L - Logging level of the log message (not the current mask)
     * - y - Full year
     * - m - Month
     * - d - Day of month
     * - h - Hour (24-hour format)
     * - M - Minutes
     * - s - Seconds 
     * - f - Source file
     * - l - Line number
     * - F - function name
     * - t - Text of message (usually important)
     *
     * You can include anything extra that you would like, a newline will always
     * be added automatically, so no need to worry about that.  You can also
     * include any extra printf style formatting that you would like, for
     * example: "%h:%02M:%02s" for the time 4:02:09 instead of 4:2:9.
     *
     * It's generally handy to create an enum of values you use as levels during
     * program execution (such as error, warning, info, debug, etc).  These
     * levels should be treated as bitflags, and the most desirable messages,
     * i.e. serious errors and the like should be low order (0x01), and the much
     * less desirable messages, like debugging info, should be higher order
     * (0xF0).  During operation you can then set either an explicit mask,
     * selecting just the levels that you would like to see printed, or set the
     * mask using the setLevel helper function, which simulates verbosity
     * levels, enabling every flag lower order than the highest order set bit
     * passed.  I.E. if you had the following enumerated levels:
     * 
     *@code
     enum {
        logError    = 0x01,
        logWarning  = 0x02,
        logInfo     = 0x04,
        logDebug    = 0x08
     };
     @endcode
     * And you set the mask with setMask( logInfo ) the only messages you would
     * see are the ones catagorized logInfo.  However, if you used 
     * setLevel( logInfo ) then you would see logInfo, logWarning, and logError
     * type messages, since they are lower order.
