__init__()

close_log()

Fully stop logging and close log file.

In order to start logging again, a new logstart() call needs to be made, possibly (though not necessarily) with a new filename, mode and other options.

log()

Write the line to a log and create input cache variables _i*.

Inputs:

• line_ori: unmodified input line from the user. This is not

necessarily valid Python.

• line_mod: possibly modified input, such as the transformations made

by input prefilters or input handlers of various kinds. This should always be valid Python.

• continuation: if True, indicates this is part of multi-line input.

log_write()

Write data to the log file, if active

logmode

logstart()

Generate a new log-file with a default header.

Raises RuntimeError if the log has already been started

logstate()

Print a status message about the logger.

logstop()

Fully stop logging and close log file.

In order to start logging again, a new logstart() call needs to be made, possibly (though not necessarily) with a new filename, mode and other options.

Switch logging on/off. val should be ONLY a boolean.
