Description:
 def logger(filter='WARN'):
 """Set up CASA to write log messages to standard output. filter The log level filter: less urgent messages will not be shown. Valid values This function creates and returns a CASA ”log sink” object that is configured to write to standard output. The default CASA implementation would *always* create a file named ``casapy.log`` in the current directory; this function safely prevents such a file from being left around. This is particularly important if you don’t have write permissions to the current directory. """
