[REQUEST] use standard INFO/WARNING/ERROR thermo prefixes in output

This is just a request for some of the new LIGGGHTS functions to use the "standard" LAMMPS logging prefixes (e.g. INFO, WARNING, ERROR) or else define a standard string. At the moment output like

Particle insertion: inserted 22276 particle templates (mass 0.068355) at step 1

is hard to trap for when reading in the thermo log file for plotting/processing (with the pizza.py log command, or otherwise).

Thanks!! Mark

Hi Mark,

good idea - I'll add the "INFO" prefix to the fix insert/* commands as well.
Btw, the next version will contain an addtional flag for the fix insert/* commands to turn off overly verbose output

Cheers, Christoph

PS: "INFO" is also a prefix that is LIGGGHTS-specific

Ahh, I didn't realise INFO was also LIGGGHTS specific - in any case, a standard prefix that the log tool in pizza.py ignores when importing thermo output would be great! And switching off verbose output will also be useful.

Thanks! Mark
