Note: Starting with BlackBox 1.7.1 (issue-#158) a low-level Console logging feature has been added to the standard BlackBox distribution. Use The module HostConsole for low-level logging to the system's console. For BlackBox versions before 1.7.1 the following module can still be used.

For logging within the BlackBox framework, in particular the text subsystem, or for logging in very low-level modules the standard BlackBox logging facilities (Log, StdLog) cannot be used.

The following module 'Console' can be used for that purpose. It attaches a Windows Console window to the BlackBox process and outputs the log to the Console window. In order to make it easy to detect new output it adds a line number at the left. In order to increase readability it supports indentation of the output. Reading of console input and pausing is also supported. Non-ASCII characters are converted to/from the underlying Windows default code page.


MODULE Console;

(* low level logging to console window;
   extended subset of Log/StdLog;
   supports switching logging on and off and indentation;
   supports reading from console;
   if used in Kernel (or other linked module) don't forget to link a new .exe file *)
