On the topic of modifying the IDE. Some years ago Jeanne Devoto and  
others helped me modify the message box to accumulate output, and  
have a scrolling field for it, which kept scrolled to the bottom. The  
output box was cleared via a command rather than on each entry. (This  
behavior is how Director's message window works, and I grew  
accustomed to it over the years.) Needless to say, after many Rev  
installations and updates, I've misplaced the scripts related to  
doing this.

I remember it didn't involve much to do it, but every time I go back  
to see if I could figure out what was done, I tell myself not to mess  
in the IDE because I really don't know what I'm doing in there.

Does anyone recall how this is done? Thanks.
