While I don't feel strongly about the issue, I can't help think the 
above behaviour is confusing.

I am use to /quiet on other command line tools which enables/disables 
STDOUT  output. It shouldn't control both STDOUT and the Event Handler.

The debug setting only affects the event handler, and not the log file. 
While this suits my needs fine, it was unexpected.

The logLevel parameter only affects the log file. Again, this suits
my needs, but was unexpected.

My solution would be to have three logLevel parameters - a loglevel for 
STDOUT, a loglevel for the event handler, and a log level for the log 
file. So each of the logging methods can be controlled independently, 
and there is no confusion as to what each one days.

However, like I said, I don't feel too strongly about this.
