.SH "DESCRIPTION k"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION k"
This module implements named buffers to be used for logging purposes.
Each buffer is an fixed length array of message records.  Each message record
consists of a two-element array, with the first element being the message time
(in \s-1UNIX\s0 epoch seconds) and the second being the message text itself.
.PP
With the exception of the \fBdumpBuffer\fR function this module is not meant to 
be used directly.  \fBParanoid::Log\fR should be your exclusive interface for
logging.
.PP
When creating a named buffer with Paranoid::Log you can specify a size
option on a per-buffer basis.  The default size is 20.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
The options recognized for use in the options hash are as follows:

This dumps all current entries in the named buffer.  Each entry is an
array reference to a two-element array.  The first element is the timestamp
of the message (in \s-1UNIX\s0 epoch seconds), the second the actual message
itself.
