# log/error
Log an error. Written to /tmp/deft.log and the workspace error console.
## Syntax
[log/error ...]
[error ...]
## Notes
The `[error ...]` macro (from `stdext/logging.dft`, auto-loaded at startup)
is the preferred entry point. It checks `DEFT_LOG_LEVEL` at runtime and
suppresses the message when the level excludes error logging.
See `help/logging.md` for details.
