Is there a command that will print to the IDE console (Where error output is sent)?
Or something similar or any solution at all really. I would like it to persist after the program has ended (in case of a crash)

I actually found it by accident, I even wrote a plugin to debug info and it was there all along!

call "Log("some text")" in debug mode

I know its a math function, but its overloaded

Well that is silly. So many logging implementations probably done that could have been replaced with this if it was better documented. Now, if only this was possible to use when running in normal mode as well.

So that's what the "szMessage - the text message to send to the log/output area" in the doc means. I was wondering about that, could not get it to work the other day. Will come in handy!

I'll admit I haven't read the documentation very carefully yet (but it seems this particular case isn't well documented anyway), lately I've mostly just looked at this forum, ran some examples etc. to see what's possible.
Apologies for any typos and strange grammar.

Making it a separate function like trace() or debug() would be very helpful i think
