I do something like this, It can be optimized, Im moving all logs every time when you can have something like a ringbuffer instead:

       private var _log:Array = new Array(20);
       public function log(t:*)
       {
           for (var i:int = 0; i < _log.length-1; i++) {
               _log[i] = _log[i + 1];
           }
           _log[_log.length - 1] = t;
output.text = _log.join("\n");
       }

Hey all,
I have a class that serves as a debugger - containing a textfield that text
gets dumped into. Rather quickly. What might be the best way to simply limit
the number of lines in the field itself, as the appends after a while bog
the application down (understandable).

I have many ideas, but I don't want the mechanism to clean up add too much
overhead itself.

Thanks,
Eric
