How do I force standard output? [message #42308]

Hi all--

Normally, IDL (on Win32) will print to standard output while a
computation is in progress, but I've found that if I'm doing a large
enough computation, it appears to cache output data and only send to
standard output when the computation is over. This isn't necessarily a
bad thing-- my problem is that I can't overcome this behavior when I
really -do- want output during the computation, i.e., the command
'flush, -1' doesn't do anything. The UNIX guy in the next office
suggested a 'non-blocking interrupt for keyboard input' but I'd rather
not delve into the Win32 API if I don't have to. Any suggestions?
