Hi all!

In itw, there is many times  mentioned console, but afaik it was never implemented.
I'm thinkking (in shadow of 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/distro-pkg-dev/2013-November/025190.html - logging tasks) 
about implement it. As it is very closely connected, and people are asking for it.
My intentionis  is to have it just as another logging output rightnow (ideas weelcomed!) in some 
outside lying frame with JTextArea....
It can show jsut jawa messages, or c messages (delivered via pipe?), or both. And its visibility 
will be from itw-settings (already prepared switch java console - show on startup) or from 
error/about dialogue.

Any opinion about this?

J.
