Hello,
I'm aware that there is a `logging` package that is more _modern_ then
[`syslog`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/syslog.html). But I have
old code here to deal with that does use `syslog`. So that question is
specific to `syslog` and not to `logging`.
I would like to get the current `LOG_MASK`, which is kind of a logging
level. According to the docu it seems that `syslog` doesn't have a
mechanism for that.
Does someone has an idea?
The docu also tells me that `syslog` does let pass all messages by
default.
My point is I do manipulate via `syslog.setlogmask()` the current log
leve. At the end I would like to set it back to its previous value.
Kind
