You mean adding new label objects or changing the text of one label? In my case 
it could grow to many thousands of lines...

Subject: Re: Best way to implement a system out console?

TextArea might not be the best choice (it needs a bit of work, currently 
scheduled for Pivot 1.5.1). How about appending Labels to a vertical BoxPane? 
Either option won't work quite like a console, since it will grow indefinitely 
(whereas a console generally maintains a fixed-size buffer or no buffer at 
all), but I think the BoxPane option should be OK as long as you don't plan to 
write too much to it.
