Topic: log-printf.c patch proposal
Hello,
Is it possible to apply such very small patch to log-printf.c in source tree ?
This patch redirects debug to stderr instead of stdout.
This is usually recomended way to display debug messages.
It allows to redirect (it not needed) debug messages to other stream (/dev/null,file), and distinguish them from normal part of program messages.
I noticed that when working with libnfc sometimes I don't need debug (2>dev/null) , sometimes I need those messages. This small fix solve this problem.
Please find my patch proposal below.
