Right, I agree that you cannot do it to the IDE window.
What I meant was to have a function that did some
appropriate solution, such as a "progress" widget like
Dave Fanning's. Or one could make a graphics window
and xyout the message.

One can erase the window then make the new message,
or rewrite the old message in the background color (thereby
'erasing' it) and write the new message in the foreground color.
There are a lot of possibilites, and it should be very straightforward
to implement. If not, perhaps the OP can elaborate on what the problem is.

Cheers,
bob
