Hi Karl,

The feature is very promising. 

It would be more than useful, I think it would strike the imagination of new potential user if I/whoever would show it in a video. 

Consider this, in all other languages to keep an eye on a silly variable the fastest way is to print in stdout. This is something that Typing Joe did thousands of times. 
It is extremely ugly and messy. I keep printing in Transcript myself and I dislike it. I do only because it is fast to implement. 

If you are working on it let me know when you have reached a landmark. I may illustrate the feature in a new video. 

bye
Nicola
