Hi,
I tried googling and didn't find anything.
I have thread doing a time-intensive search and I want its
results printed to a second console while the main console
displays what I already have writing.
Thanks.
When something displays to the console, it's by the program
writing to stdout or stderr. Then by default, the console
displays that output (though it could be redirected to a file
or pipe or whatnot). So, the program itself isn't even in
control of sending data to the console it's running in, let
alone another console. It just sends the data to stdout.
Probably the simplest way to get data displaying on a second
console is to write the data to a file and then tail -f the
file in the other console.

I came up with an alternative solution. Having a command line
option to show the second stream:
while(true) {
auto line = readln();
if (line) {
if (line == "quit")
return;
else if (line == "dbg matrix")
yoda.setShowMatrix(true);
else if (line == "stop dbg")
yoda.setShowMatrix(false);
else if (line == "restart")
yoda.start();
}
Thread.sleep(dur!"msecs"(100));
}
