93messages at C<error> priority. 118messages at C<error> priority. The NOTE column tries to provide some
119rationale on how to chose a logging level.
94 120
121As a rough guideline, levels 1..3 are primarily meant for users of the
122program (admins, staff), and are the only ones logged to STDERR by
123default. Levels 4..6 are meant for users and developers alike, while
124levels 7..9 are usually meant for developers.
125
95You can normally only log a single message at highest priority level 126You can normally only log a message once at highest priority level (C<1>,
96(C<1>, C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the 127C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the program - so
97program - so use it sparingly :) 128use it sparingly :)
129
130For example, a program that finds an unknown switch on the commandline
131might well use a fatal logging level to tell users about it - the "system"
132in this case would be the program, or module.
98 133
99Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none> 134Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none>

781=item $ctx->cap ($level)
782
783Caps the maximum priority to the given level, for all messages logged
784to, or passing through, this context. That is, while this doesn't affect
785whether a message is logged or passed on, the maximum priority of messages
786will be limited to the specified level - messages with a higher priority
787will be set to the specified priority.
788
789Another way to view this is that C<< ->level >> filters out messages with
790a too low priority, while C<< ->cap >> modifies messages with a too high
791priority.
792
793This is useful when different log targets have different interpretations
794of priority. For example, for a specific command line program, a wrong
795command line switch might well result in a C<fatal> log message, while the
796same message, logged to syslog, is likely I<not> fatal to the system or
797syslog facility as a whole, but more likely a mere C<error>.
798
799This can be modeled by having a stderr logger that logs messages "as-is"
800and a syslog logger that logs messages with a level cap of, say, C<error>,
801or, for truly system-critical components, actually C<critical>.
