In his post you originally replied to, he wrote: »So QA reruns the app 
with the command line option --vmodule=io=3« – note the »io« part there. 
In terms of code, e.g. here:

I was referring to the post of you I actually cited, where you wrote:

---
In this case I prefer snippets like this:

// some IO logic
version(log_io) logDbg(`SENT: ` ~ line);
---

Clearly, you can't activate/deactivate logging at runtime here, but you 
proposed that directly in answer to a post where the merits of being 
able to enable verbose logging in an existing application were discussed.

No offense intended, but could you please try to respect common 
newsgroup/mailing list etiquette and actually read the posts you are 
replying to?
