Super! I realized it wasn't where it should be, functionally. So I 
published a new version 'TraceMonitor-rww.2.mcz'. I am now initializing 
with a Transcript stream, but able to add multiple steams; Internally 
the monitor writes to a CompositeStream, able to hold multiple streams.

Here we have a Transcript stream, by default, and a file stream.

     | monitor |
     monitor := TraceMonitor newNick: 'TestingMonitor'.
     monitor openTraceStreamNamed: 'traceMonitor.log'.

Calling #etrace:msg: in an object who is being monitored by this 
monitor, will result in the event written to both the Transcript and the 
file named 'traceMonitor.log'.

Unfortunately, I am not making any assertions in the TestCase, which is 
more of an ExampleCase. If you will define your own domains, a test 
example of etraceing with that domain could be built and output 
verified, visually or assertively.

K, r
