I did what glog does. Going forward, there is a private static string 
for formatting file names using positional parameters. In the future I'm 
considering providing an API for changing that format string, which 
means the log file format will be user-definable. (Same about the format 
of individual messages - see the string constants fileNameFormat and 
format toward the top of log.d.) Positional parameters look a bit odd 
but they are quite flexible.
