Hello,

I have noticed that when TCL commands are being issued from OpenOCD's
startup scripts, their output (produced by command_print()) is not actually
visible on the output, apart from the last print. The preceding prints seem
to be dropped  - not visible to the user.

This can be demonstrated e.g. on load_image / verify_image commands, that
are supposed to print both progress info ("XX bytes written to address YY")
and the overall summary ("Written XX bytes"). However, only the last
printed line - the summary - is visible.

>From a gerrit discussion, I understand this is a known issue, and I have
been pointed to http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/1815/7

Could you please explain how this issue came to being, or point me to an
earlier thread, if this has already been discussed? Is there any plan to
change this, so that the user can be informed in real-time e.g. about the
progress of load_image and similar commands?

Thank you, regards
Jan
