Wow, that is exactly the sort of logging bloat, that I try to get rid of.

With Sys::Syslog you have full control over syslog that is not the point.

I am looking for an integrated solution with the Log::Log4perl framework. I would like to use a tiny set of log4perl configuration files with good defaults and a mix of screen and syslog appenders. Inexperienced programmers should be able to quit a script with something like LOGDIE("could not do foo with bar"); (and possibly a stacktrace where it makes sense.). So far this all seems to work nicely. That is until I found out that syslog walls every FATAL to every open terminal.

Now do I really have to rollback every LOGDIE/LOGCROAK to a lengthy ERROR() and exit statement or is there a tweak to shutup syslog or use an equivalent nonfatal LOGDIE.
print+qq(\L@{[ref\&@]}@{['@'x7^'!#2/"!4']});
