log.lua

As a single-file module, it can be dropped into any Lua project without dependencies, making setup trivial and alignment with its minimalist philosophy.

Offers six severity levels with a settable minimum level (log.level), allowing fine-grained control to filter out less important messages like trace or debug.

Supports ANSI colors via log.usecolor for better visual distinction of log levels in terminals, enhancing readability during debugging.

Allows logging to a file with full timestamps by setting log.outfile, automatically creating or appending to the file, which is useful for persistence.
