Description

Hi Drracket

My program keeps print some information in the interactive window after it starts to run. I hope the interactive window can keep scrolling to the latest message so that I can see the latest logs printed out by my program.

I checked preferences there is no such option. Please let me know where is the start point of the code to check, so that maybe I can fix it by my self.

Thanks
Walter
