Abstract
The present invention allows the user of the tool to easily and quickly determine where various types of data are to be sent during the operation of the tool. A particular type of data may be sent to one or more of a variety of devices including various text windows, the status bar, a popup message box, to one or more files, or the user may choose to ignore a particular type of data altogether. The presently disclosed method is accomplished by a software interface which permits two things to happen. First, all data targeted at the user is assigned by the user to a particular stream as opposed to being sent to a specific device. Second, the tool provides a user interface control that allows the user to determine which devices (if any) are to be connected to which streams.
