DESCRIPTION
       This package adds template based appenders.

       ::logger::utils::createFormatCmd formatString
              This command translates formatString into an expandable command string.  The following strings
              are the known substitutions (from log4perl) allowed to occur in the formatString:

              %d     Current date in yyyy/MM/dd hh:mm:ss

              %H     Hostname

              %m     Message to be logged

              %M     Method where logging event was issued

              %p     Priority of logging event

              %P     Pid of current process

       ::logger::utils::createLogProc -procName procName ?options...?
              This command ...

              -procName procName
                     The name of the procedure to create.

              -conversionPattern pattern
                     See ::logger::utils::createFormatCmd for the substitutions allowed in the pattern.

              -category category

              -outputChannel channel
                     channel to output on (default stdout)

       ::logger::utils::applyAppender -appender appenderType ?options...?
              This command will create an appender for the specified logger services. If no service is spec-ified specified
              ified  then the appender will be added as the default appender for the specified levels. If no
              levels are specified, then all levels are assumed.

              -serviceCmd loggerserviceCmds
                     Name of the logger instance to modify. -serviceCmd takes as input the  return  of  log-ger::init. logger::init.
                     ger::init.

              -appender appenderType
                     Type of the appender to use.  One of console, colorConsole.

              -conversionPattern pattern
                     See  ::logger::utils::createFormatCmd  for the format of the pattern. If this option is
                     not provided the default pattern
                     [%d] [%c] [%M] [%p] %m
                     is used.

              -levels levelList
                     The list of levels to apply this appender to. If not specified all levels are  assumed.

       Example of usage:


          % set log [logger::init testLog]
          ::logger::tree::testLog
          % logger::utils::applyAppender -appender console -serviceCmd $log
          % ${log}::error "this is an error"
          [2005/08/22 10:14:13] [testLog] [global] [error] this is an error


       ::logger::utils::autoApplyAppender command command-string log op args...
              This command is designed to be added via trace leave to calls of logger::init. It will look at

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