The widget version of IDL help (type ? when current device is the terminal)
allows simultaneous command line input and output. Has anybody successfully
done this with other widgets?

I tried a long time ago and failed to get pleasing results. I could execute
some commands typed in an editable text window, but could redirect the text
output and error output properly. Also command recall had to be implemented
separately, i.e, I had to go it myself.

Now I have an application were I'd like to have a set of pop-up menus but still
type commands at the command line. Does anybody have any ideas?

Fred
