I took a look at the IDE code. Its rather slick how they did stuff in there. I noticed the main part I found it the TOutputPanel class. There are parts that are wrapped around this, but it appears everything is eventually done here. My guess is in order to get a console, it'd need to be created using a TextArea gadget and parse out the console itself. My understanding while looking at it was you can call out to the command line, but it doesn't exactly trap the real console activity? It does capture some things, but at this point I'm not entirely clear of what it all does. I'd need to dig a while more into it. (As its stands, I spent maybe 10 minutes looking into it.)
