If you call:
from syslog import syslog, openlog syslog('My error message') Something like the following gets logged: Mar 18 05:20:22 guin python: My error message ^^^^^^ Where I'm annoyed by the "python" in the above. This is pulled from the C argv[0]. IMHO, what we really want is the Python sys.argv[0].
I agree with this. The existing behavior is very annoying. I don't have any particular thoughts about the implementation.
