Doing: Workspace  openContents: 'hello world' shows  Is there a way to remove the syntax highlighting? I have recently been using ws := Workspace openLabel: 'A Nice Label'. ws contents: '"', 'my contents', '"'. ie:  wrapping the contents with doubles quotes which simply make the contents a comment in the workspace. This is what I noticed was being used for the workspaces opened in in new image. I do wish we had a simple text box to receive such content which was not necessarily meant  for syntax highlighting. I am using Workspace in my situation to provide progress updates on background processes which take hours to accomplish their task. I don't know if any of the recent work towards improving Transcript helps here. For me I would want an independent Transcript which I label and control. Not the general Transcript. Hope this helps.
