+1 for both of Igor's mails!
Why? this is really important to have threadsafe transcript and it is good to
have a look at
what juan did.
We should be able to use a transcript even without morph.
It's that exactly what Igor was fighting for?
ah ok this was totally unclear.
I don't know the implementation, nor the old nor the new. I just read
his email and thought it made a lot of sense.
For example where he lost you, he's just saying that it shouldn't matter
if the transcript is something that is showing something in a window in
the image, or if it's streaming the data to some external client
somewhere. The API should just be the writestream API where it's used,
independent of how it's being viewed by the second user who is reading
the output printed on the transcript.
It sounds like at the moment it's mixed and the user can also start
reading from the transcript... that seems wrong since the data might
have been sent over the wire; thus being gone and not available anymore
in the transcript. Viewing the transcript is something totally different
than writing to it.
