Applies to:

Dream Seeker

Status:

Not Feasible

Implementing this feature is not possible now or in the foreseeable future

It'd be neat if Dream Seeker could catch console.log calls in any browser control in Dream Seeker and could be output to the client's Options & Messages window.
It should output the messages in such a way that you know it's from a browser control, like "window.control: [output here]".

Maybe, this would only appear if the user has ".configure debug on" set; that would be the orange debug text most people don't see.

console.log is great for debugging.

LordAndrew	In general it'd be nice to have access to a developer console of some sort, but I'd definitely settle for `console.log()` (`console.table()` would be nice too!).

Lummox JR	I don't know of any way to hook that, but what you could try is replacing window.console with an object of your own in JS, and giving that a log() proc that sends text to the game via a topic link.
