JBuilder handles this if 'sync' mode is set.

There are two reasons why I don't remove it: The first one is that I don't know how! There was a something in the FAQ (http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=540462), but it doesn't work for me. If you can provide this information, it would be nice. The second, which is the subject of this mail, is that intellij's own errors are reported in this window. Since I want to help making this product even better than it is now, I try to report on errors and exceptions that appear there. As a programmer I know that even a stack trace may not be enough for debugging a problem. The first and most important step in bug report is to describe how to reconstruct it, or the closest thing to that. The problem is that the first time that I notice that there was a problem, is when I accidentally switch to the DOS window and see the printed error or stack trace. By then, there is no chance that I'll know or remember when was the time of that error, and what I did that may have caused it. All I can do is send the stack trace, which is rather useless. I've seen many bug reports with only "I've got this exception..." and I'm sure that most of the errors are not even reported. My suggestion: 1. Remove the DOS window. 2. Show these errors/exception in a dialog, WHEN the error happens. 3. Don't bother to implement some fancy report mechanism. A text pane with the stack trace and some additional data (e.g. JVM version, OS), formatted in your preference, will do the work. 4. Important: make it optional. Not all the users wishes to report bugs, and they would prefer not to be bothered with this dialog. If there'll be an error that appears frequently, even the most active bug reporter, will wish to turn this feature (dialog) off. 5. Write everything to a log file. I'm sure that this solution will annoy fewer users, and help us to send us better bug reports.
