Hi,

Here is a more developed version of the GUI console.

I have checked you patch. I just think that it's not good idea to mix
log area with prompt. I would vote for improving GPrompt class. Log
area should remain read-only. Input and output should remain
separated.

A while back I would have agreed with this. Now I'm not so sure. It is certainly not a problem to separate input and output, though I'd recommend looking at making the input box an STC too to take advantage of the autocomplete functions. It really eliminates a lot of coding and the current autocomplete doesn't seem to work on my Mac. On the other hand, I no longer see disadvantage to putting input and output into the same window, like a system terminal or python shell, and I can now see some advantages to doing so--or at least some handy features.
