//! The basic implementation of the output of a message to the output
//! stream. This can overwritten by inheriting classes. The default is
//! to redirect the message to the stream fOut. In addition colors
//! from WindowLog are used depending on the severity. The color are ignored
//! if the stream is not of type WindowLog.
//!
//! The default message has the form:
//!     ## 2011-02-22 11:13:32.000754 - Text message.
//!
//! while ## is a placeholder depending on the severity of the message, e.g.
//!
//!     kMessage:  default    ->
//!     kInfo:     green      I>
//!     kWarn:     yellow     W>
