I am having an issue getting output to display during a loop. I've
tried lock/unlock screen but unlock screen does not seem to cause the
screen to update. The only thing that works is "wait 0 seconds" but
this causes bizarre behavior in some cases (mouseDown/mouseUp not
behaving correctly [even when I use wait "with messages"]).
It works well without the "with messages" clause, so just adding "wait
0" should do what you need.
That said, it appears that very soon that particular bit of arcane
knowledge will no longer be needed to have text displayed reliably -
members of the Dev Program can read Mark Waddingham's thoughtful
comments on this here, noting that going forward the update behavior
will be made more consistent across platforms:

Until that version is released, simply adding "wait 0" will do what you
need.
