Option 1 would not require changing sys.stdout. I wouldn't want to do
that. It would work just like option 2 except instead of passing
arguments, you import a module with the info. I'd do something like a
module "ConsoleFilter" with a variable "ConsoleOut".
Now any module that wants to output to the console, just
from ConsoleFilter import ConsoleOut
print >>ConsoleOut, whatever
instead of
print whatever
The ConsoleFilter (or whatever) module takes care of initializing
"ConsoleFilter" based on the OS and available modules, etc.
Very minimal changes to the current structure and the change is nicely
encapsulated in the "terminal" module.
See what I mean? It would be much easier (for me at least) to implement
than 2 which requires changing every place in the call chain to provide
the object.
