   <!-- map as many as you need for specific debugging -->
   <mappings>
     <!-- 
-	 name can be a file name, function name or 'all' 
-	 value is one or more of debug,info,notice,warning,err,crit,alert,all

+      name can be a file name, function name or 'all' 
+      value is one or more of debug,info,notice,warning,err,crit,alert,all
+      See examples below
+
+
+      The following map is the default, which is all debug levels enabled:
+      <map name="all" value="debug,info,notice,warning,err,crit,alert"/>
+
+
+      Example: the following turns on debugging for error and critical levels only
+      <map name="all" value="err,crit"/>
+
+      NOTE: using map name="all" will override any other settings!  If you 
+            want a more specific set of console messages then you will need
+            to specify which files and/or functions you want to have debug
+            messages.  One option is to turn on just the more critical 
+            messages with map name="all", then specify the other types of 
+            console messages you want to see for various files and functions.
+
+      Example: turn on ERROR, CRIT, ALERT for all modules, then specify other
+               levels for various modules and functions
+
+        <map name="all" value="err,crit,alert"/>
+        <map name="switch_loadable_module_process" value="all"/>
+        <map name="mod_local_stream.c" value="warning,debug"/>
+        <map name="mod_sndfile.c" value="warning,info,debug"/>
+     -->
     <map name="all" value="debug,info,notice,warning,err,crit,alert"/>
