NAME
       Log::Message::Simple - Simplified interface to Log::Message

SYNOPSIS
	   use Log::Message::Simple qw[msg error debug
				       carp croak cluck confess];

	   use Log::Message::Simple qw[:STD :CARP];

	   ### standard reporting functionality
	   msg(	   "Connecting to database",	       $verbose );
	   error(  "Database connection failed: $@",   $verbose );
	   debug(  "Connection arguments were: $args", $debug );

	   ### standard carp functionality
	   carp(   "Wrong arguments passed: @_" );
	   croak(  "Fatal: wrong arguments passed: @_" );
	   cluck(  "Wrong arguments passed -- including stacktrace: @_" );
	   confess("Fatal: wrong arguments passed -- including stacktrace: @_" );

	   ### retrieve individual message
	   my @stack = Log::Message::Simple->stack;
	   my @stack = Log::Message::Simple->flush;

	   ### retrieve the entire stack in printable form
	   my $msgs  = Log::Message::Simple->stack_as_string;
	   my $trace = Log::Message::Simple->stack_as_string(1);

	   ### redirect output
	   local $Log::Message::Simple::MSG_FH	   = \*STDERR;
	   local $Log::Message::Simple::ERROR_FH   = \*STDERR;
	   local $Log::Message::Simple::DEBUG_FH   = \*STDERR;

	   ### force a stacktrace on error
	   local $Log::Message::Simple::STACKTRACE_ON_ERROR = 1

DESCRIPTION
       This module provides standardized logging facilities using the
       "Log::Message" module.

FUNCTIONS
   msg("message string" [,VERBOSE])
       Records a message on the stack, and prints it to "STDOUT" (or actually
       $MSG_FH, see the "GLOBAL VARIABLES" section below), if the "VERBOSE"
       option is true.	The "VERBOSE" option defaults to false.

       Exported by default, or using the ":STD" tag.

   debug("message string" [,VERBOSE])
       Records a debug message on the stack, and prints it to "STDOUT" (or
       actually $DEBUG_FH, see the "GLOBAL VARIABLES" section below), if the
       "VERBOSE" option is true.  The "VERBOSE" option defaults to false.

       Exported by default, or using the ":STD" tag.

   error("error string" [,VERBOSE])
       Records an error on the stack, and prints it to "STDERR" (or actually
       $ERROR_FH, see the "GLOBAL VARIABLES" sections below), if the "VERBOSE"
       option is true.	The "VERBOSE" options defaults to true.

       Exported by default, or using the ":STD" tag.

   carp();
       Provides functionality equal to "Carp::carp()" while still logging to
       the stack.

       Exported by using the ":CARP" tag.

   croak();
       Provides functionality equal to "Carp::croak()" while still logging to
       the stack.

       Exported by using the ":CARP" tag.

   confess();
       Provides functionality equal to "Carp::confess()" while still logging
       to the stack.

       Exported by using the ":CARP" tag.

   cluck();
       Provides functionality equal to "Carp::cluck()" while still logging to
       the stack.

       Exported by using the ":CARP" tag.

CLASS METHODS
   Log::Message::Simple->stack()
       Retrieves all the items on the stack. Since "Log::Message::Simple" is
       implemented using "Log::Message", consult its manpage for the function
       "retrieve" to see what is returned and how to use the items.

   Log::Message::Simple->stack_as_string([TRACE])
       Returns the whole stack as a printable string. If the "TRACE" option is
       true all items are returned with "Carp::longmess" output, rather than
       just the message.  "TRACE" defaults to false.

   Log::Message::Simple->flush()
       Removes all the items from the stack and returns them. Since
       "Log::Message::Simple" is  implemented using "Log::Message", consult
       its manpage for the function "retrieve" to see what is returned and how
       to use the items.

GLOBAL VARIABLES
       $ERROR_FH
	   This is the filehandle all the messages sent to "error()" are being
	   printed. This defaults to *STDERR.

       $MSG_FH
	   This is the filehandle all the messages sent to "msg()" are being
	   printed. This default to *STDOUT.

       $DEBUG_FH
	   This is the filehandle all the messages sent to "debug()" are being
	   printed. This default to *STDOUT.

       $STACKTRACE_ON_ERROR
	   If this option is set to "true", every call to "error()" will
	   generate a stacktrace using "Carp::shortmess()".  Defaults to
	   "false"
