XWin.log: WIBGI ...

XWin.log: WIBGI ...

[Gaël Gueguen]

Hello list !

As I know you really love WIBGI, I will contribute my ... suggestion ;-)
I often have multiple XWin launched at the same time, and if XWin.log
could have somewhere in his name the display number, I think that would
be much easier to debug ...

Thx for your attention,
Gael.

Yes, it would be great if the log file put the display and screen 
numbers in each message.  However, this wouldn't really fix the problem 
because there is no synchronization to write to the log file, so you 
often get messages written on top of each other when you run more than 
one display or screen.

XFree86 CVS currently has a new log file system that Alexander has 
enabled for Cygwin/XFree86.  I don't know if that new system uses 
display and screen-specific log files or not (I think it should and 
probably does).  So, your request may magically be fixed when XFree86 
4.4.0 is released.  By the way, 4.4.0 is going to be a very nice 
upgrade.  It has had a lot of new features added that work for all 
supported platforms, including Cygwin (such as the log feature).

So, wait patiently dear user, wait patiently,

Harold
