level(info,notice,warn..crit)
I expect that the most common usage (by far) of level filters will be the usual "level >= <foo>" so this should be the better-supported option. I.e. if you want to use a function-call-like notation, it seems that level(info) should really mean level >= info (btw: the Linux's syslog.conf manpage uses "priority" to talk about this characteristic of a log message). Now do we want fancier specification and if so what should it look like ? Clearly we want to be able to specify something like "=" or ranges. But the above syntax already allows it (just like most syslog daemons already allow it) with: level(info) and not level(notice) So I don't think it's really important to provide anything more. Stefan
