Null logger

[Archos]

Is there any way to create a null logger which been valid for Windows too? I mean a logger that really doesn't writes

I'd thinked in to use os.DevNull but would be valid for Windows too?

    null, err := os.Open(os.DevNull)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    Log = log.New(null, "", 0)

os.DevNull is portable across all supported OSes (in fact, everything in the os pkg is portable

except explicitly noted)

on Windows, os.DevNull is "NUL".
