8.7. The --debugmsg command line option

So, the --debugmsg command line option has been changed as follows:

  * the new syntax is: --debugmsg [yyy]#xxx[,[yyy1]#xxx1]* where # is either +
    or -
   
  * when the optional class argument (yyy) is not present, then the statement
    will enable(+)/disable(-) all messages for the given channel (xxx) on all
    classes. For example:
   
    --debugmsg +reg,-file
                
   
    enables all messages on the reg channel and disables all messages on the
    file channel. This is same as the old semantics.
   
  * when the optional class argument (yyy) is present, then the statement will
    enable (+)/disable(-) messages for the given channel (xxx) only on the
    given class. For example:
   
    --debugmsg trace+reg,warn-file
                
   
    enables trace messages on the reg channel and disables warning messages on
    the file channel.
   
  * also, the pseudo-channel all is also supported and it has the intuitive
    semantics:
   
        --debugmsg +all      -- enables all debug messages
        --debugmsg -all      -- disables all debug messages   
        --debugmsg yyy+all   -- enables debug messages for class yyy on all
                               channels.
        --debugmsg yyy-all   -- disables debug messages for class yyy on all
                               channels.
                
   
    So, for example:
   
        --debugmsg warn-all  -- disables all warning messages.
                

Also, note that at the moment:

  * the FIXME and ERR classes are enabled by default
   
  * the TRACE and WARN classes are disabled by default
