<p>ipc.log will accept any number of arguments and if <code>ipc.config.silent</code> is not set, it will concat them all with a single space ' ' between them and then log them to the console. This is fast because it prevents any concatenation from happening if the ipc.config.silent is set <code>true</code>. That way if you leave your logging in place it should have almost no effect on performance.</p>
|

|

<p>The log also supports <a href="https://github.com/Marak/colors.js">colors</a> implementation. All of the available styles are supported and the theme styles are as follows :</p>

<p>The log also uses util.inspect You can control if it should log in color as well as the log depth via <code>ipc.config</code></p>
