process TEST = {

  service = MessageLogger {
    vstring destinations = {   "detailedInfo.txt"
                      , "critical.txt"
                      , <font color=red>"cout"</font>
                      , "cerr"
                                             }
    PSet critical.txt     = { string threshold = "ERROR"   }
    PSet detailedInfo.txt = { string threshold = "INFO"    } 
    PSet cerr             = { string threshold = "WARNING" }
  }

}
</pre>


The <font color=red>{ ..., "cout", ... }</font> 
in the list of destinations refers to message information streamed to 
<em>std::cout</em> rather than to a file named cout.  In this configuration
file, no threshold is set for cout; the destination writing to cout will react
to every message.  Also, this configuration file establishes destinations to 
cout and cerr for illustration purposes, but in practice it would be confusing
to send to both, since unless one or the other of the streams is
re-directed, the output would appear entangled.
<p>
The MessageLogger service provides no way to create a destination writing to
an ordinary file named cout or cerr.
