NSLog(); from main() writes to /var/log/system.log

I wish it did, but not on my Mac running Panther, it doesn't. I verified
that /var/log/system.log does indeed log unix calls from my application, and
they print in Console.app as they occur. But this log does not get NSLog()s
(or std::couts) from within int main(int argc, char* argv). These outputs
do, however, go to Terminal when launching my app from the terminal, just
the same as if they appeared somewhere in the app's "regular" code.

Open Console.app and click on the "Logs" toolbar item to show the logs list. Select "console.log" instead of "system.log". I believe this log is located in /Library/Logs/Console/.

Hope this helps,
Jim Balhoff
