By default, log4js outputs to stdout with the coloured layout (thanks to [masylum](http://github.com/masylum)), so for the above you would see:

If you have already defined an absolute path for one of the FileAppenders in the configuration file, you could add a "absolute": true to the particular FileAppender to override the cwd option passed. Here is an example configuration file:

Documentation for most of the core appenders can be found on the [wiki](log4js-node/wiki/Appenders), otherwise take a look at the tests and the examples.
