  The Log Writer Library (LWL) is a collection of routines for writing 
  logs messages to files from C programms. It is a portable and 
  re-entrant library fully written from scratch in pure ANSI C. It is 
  designed to offer for C programmers common routines for logging 
  messages in a highly customisable way.

  ('/usr/local/include/' by default).
  Include '-llwl' to your link command, and add the lib dir to

  header file: 'lwl.h'.
