This proposed function is much more complicated than what was requested. While it does compress multiple lines into a single call, I think it does not achieve simplification.

I suggest leaving out some options and/or splitting some of those that remain into separate functions. Also, consider changing to name to something active instead of configuration related. The idea is making something like the following possible:

As a rather intense user of the logging module, I have to disagree with Richard here. The basicConfig() signature that Vinay proposes covers pretty much everything I would like to be able to do except setting an explicit handler, which it clearly shouldn't handle.
