Ralph,

Coult it be that the console (RcxTcl) does that (and not pbForth)?

Thanks

Hi,

I would like to be able to show some info on the Terminal Emulator while
debugging, but it seems that pbForth "keeps" the info until the program is
over. For example:

: TEST  100 0 DO I CR .  7 1 0 MOTOR_SET  LOOP  7 4 0 MOTOR_SET ;

will start the motor a while before the 100 numbers are displayed. Actually,
the numbers will appear at about the same time the motor stops. Is there a
way I can make it show each number before the program is over?

Thanks

Mario
