在我们日常工作中，我们需要从Windows系统上发送syslog消息到syslog服务器。下面的代码能够工作的很好。

syslogd must be started with -r to allow toreceive UDP from

def syslog(message, level=LEVEL['notice'],facility=FACILITY['daemon'],
host='localhost',port=514):
"""

"""
sock= socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
data= '<%d>%s' % (level + facility*8, message)
sock.sendto(data,(host, port))
sock.close()
示例用法：
from syslog import syslog
syslog('There were zwei peanuts walking downder strasse...', host='brit.ain')
为了让它工作，你必须确保syslog服务接收远程消息。你能通过使用-r选项启动syslogd。
我也喜欢Pyton docstring有多么的好，例如：
$ python
