Javascript `log` Function

Every time I start a new project, I want to pull in a log function that allows the same functionality as the console.log, including the full functionality of the Console API.

There are a lot of ways to do this, but many are lacking. A common problem with wrapper functions is that the line number that shows up next to the log is the line number of the log function itself, not where log was invoked. There are also times where the arguments get logged in a way that isn't quite the same as the native function.

This is an attempt to once and for all document the function that I pull in to new projects. There are two different options:

The full version: Inspired by the plugin in HTML5 Boilerplate. Use this if you are writing an application and want to create a window.log function. Additionally,

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

	//Long Shadow
	//http://codepen.io/awesomephant/pen/mAxHz
	//Usage: @include long-shadow(box/text, #000, 200, false, false, left);

	@mixin long-shadow($type, $color, $length, $fadeout: true, $skew: false, $direction: right){
	$shadow: '';
	@if $skew == false or $type == text{
	@if $direction == right {
	@for $i from 0 to $length - 1 {
	$shadow: $shadow + $i + 'px ' + $i + 'px 0 ' + $color + ',';

	var mySingleton = (function(){

	var instance = null

	function K(){
	if(!instance \|\| this !== instance) throw "Constructor is a singleton"
	return this

	K.prototype.foo = function(){}

	var objectPool = [];
	var marker = 0;
	var poolSize = 0;

	//any old JavaScript object
	function commonObject () { }

	commonObject.create = function () {
	if (marker >= poolSize) {
	commonObject.expandPool(poolSize * 2);
