Something like that is what I was thinking of. It would have to be a
string variable (so surrounding quotes would be needed), and you would
need a little routine to parse it, ignoring whitespace etc., and also
make appropriate doc changes. I guess eventlog would be an error on
anything but Windows, and (at least for now) syslog would be an error on
Windows.

Are there any special eventlog settings needed?
