put awareness

[Ken Ray]

Derek, I don't think  the field itself is aware of the change, but you can
add it to your logging command. Here's what I have in my log (watch line
wrapping):

on LogIt what
  if fld "Log" is not empty then
    put cr & what after last line of fld "Log"
  else
    put what into fld "Log"
  end if
  set the scroll of fld "Log" to (the formattedHeight of fld "Log" - the
height of fld "Log")
end LogIt

HTH,
