This is a simple console window that will display static or dynamic text.

It can be draged with the mouse or resized.
click the top left to drag or bottom right to resize.

Open it by pressing the "`" key(next to the one key), you can also scroll the text with the up/down arrow keys.

It wont look much on screen but it wont eat cpu time either.

I've made a similar text box like that before. Not a movable console though. The only problem I noticed is when you scroll to the last line, it'll flicker if you try to go past it. My guess is that if you have 80 current lines, it's showing the cursor at 81(no lines) before it wraps the cursor back to 80. I didn't give the code a real look, so this is just a guess.

The bug is in draw_text()

if logy>maxlog
logy=maxlog-1

endif

to:

if logy>=maxlog
logy=maxlog-1

endif
