    """Class to trap standard output and standard error. They get logged in
    StringIO objects which are available as <instance>.out and
    <instance>.err. The class also offers summary methods which format this
    data a bit.

    A word of caution: because it blocks messages, using this class can make
    debugging very tricky. If you are having bizarre problems silently, try
    turning your output traps off for a while. You can call the constructor
    with the parameter debug=1 for these cases. This turns actual trapping
    off, but you can keep the rest of your code unchanged (this has already
    been a life saver).

    Example:

    # config: trapper with a line of dots as log separator (final '\\n' needed)
    config = OutputTrap('Config','Out ','Err ','.'*80+'\\n')

    # start trapping output
    config.trap_all()

    # now all output is logged ...
    # do stuff...

    # output back to normal:
    config.release_all()

    # print all that got logged:
    print config.summary()

    # print individual raw data:
    print config.out.getvalue()
    print config.err.getvalue()
