Switches

The following optional switches may be used when instantiating localDataStorage:

/q - silent mode

/w - warn mode

Silent mode will not output anything to the console when localDataStorage starts up. This mode is handy when you don't need to see any warnings (or any other output).

In warn mode, the software will first check if the specified prefix has already been used with keys that exist in localStorage, and if so, a warning message is sent to the console. This mode is useful when you need to see warnings on startup. (Currently, the prefix check is the only warning available.)

When no switches are used, standard output will be sent to the console, but warnings will not appear even if they exist.

EXAMPLES:

To show standard output, ignoring any warnings

• z = localDataStorage( 'mac' );
  --> localDataStorage instantiated. The specified prefix (mac.) adds 4 bytes to every key name (stored using 8 bytes).
