How about we call this thing "print()" and rename the existing print() function (which dumps to the console) log() instead? Almost everyone would prefer this to be the default text output, I think. Also, rather than copying code from the ATC display, would it be better to unify the two? Is there a really good reason not to have both streams in the same scroll buffer?
