Description Thomas Hautesserres 2000-11-16 14:06:56 UTC
When a java program is executed in the output window, the OUT and ERR output
streams are mixed, and mixed on a character per character base.
This is really annoying!
Two separate sides of a windowd could be a solution (like in the javadoc
window), but mixing the two stream on a line base would be even better.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2000-11-20 16:33:59 UTC
I believe this is duplicate--there is already a request somewhere to distinguish
stderr output (perhaps by color), and there may be a request somewhere to ensure
that stdout + stderr are mixed only by lines, not at character granularity.
There is also a general desire to reimplement the Output Window to more resemble
a conventional terminal emulator with readline-like functionality, as it has a
lot of usability problems the way it is now.
