Description chaddaniels 2012-05-01 21:06:55 UTC 
The contents of an Output Window can be manually saved by the user by right-clicking and selecting "Save As" from the popup menu.  I really need to be able to do the same thing, but programmatically.  I'd really like an API for getting the contents of the Output Window, so that way I could do whatever I want with it, including saving it to a file.
