[Rest2web-develop] rest2web Verbosity

[Fuzzyman <fuz...@vo...>]

Hello all,

Just to let you all know that I am most of the way through implementing 
'verbosity levels'. All the infrastructure is in place, and I'm starting 
to go through changing the print statements.

I'm implementing three levels of verbosity :

    -v Verbose (default) Info, Warnings & Action
    -a Warnings & Actions
    -w Warnings Only

Info is when rest2web scans a new directory, processes a page, guesses 
an encoding &  skips writing a page or copying a file.

Actions are when it does something like writing a file or copying a file.

Warnings are when a file to be copied is missing, or something like that.

Are these levels sufficient ? Should I add an option to the config file 
to set the verbosity level, as well as the command line switches ?

New code should use the 'out' function rather than the print statement, 
and set the level of the message being sent. If a log file is in use, 
*everything* is logged - whatever the verbosity level.

Even on the lowest verbosity level (-w), the welcome message, rest2web 
version, and number of files processed is still displayed.

Thanks
