Log output I haven't seen before

[RedBearAK]

I set up a systemd user service unit file to run keyszer from, and noticed some log output in the journal that I've never seen before in verbose logging. Tried to do a search for certain things like the "()" context some of the lines have (by searching for `ctx=""`) and nothing came up. Just wondering where this stuff comes from.

I'm especially interested in this line:

Those are log lines from other software on your system.

Ah. That would explain why I've never seen it before.

The formatting of the log output had me thinking it came from keyszer somehow. But I guess it's more that xkeysnail log output was modeled off of this kind of logging.

Gotta look into that xkb_layout thing.
