logging module and trailing newlines

[Russell Warren]

I was just setting up some logging in a make script and decided to
give the built-in logging module a go, but I just found out that the
base StreamHandler always puts a newline at the end of each log.
There is a comment in the code that says  "The record is then written
to the stream with a trailing newline [N.B. this may be removed
depending on feedback]"... I guess there wasn't the feedback to drive
the change.

All I'm after is the ability to log things like...

Compiling 'shrubbery.c'...      [DONE]

where the "[DONE]" was added later in time than the "Compiling...",
and the output goes to both stdout and to a log file.  ie: I want to
tee my print statements and keep the ability to skip the trailing
newline.  I had rolled my own primitive version than decided to try
the logging module for kicks.

Anyone have a suggestion on how to get logging to work like this?  Or
know of a way to tee in Windows without forcing other users to install
a tee package?
