The Console
command allows to switch off the console, which is mainly required when running a multimedia presentation or an analysis script that makes heavy use of the Yanaconda macro language.
When the console is switched off, macros execute significantly faster,
because the screen is not updated anymore, except when the Wait
command is issued. To gain additional speed, the Undo
/Redo functions are also disabled. If switched off,
the only data echoed to the console are the results of analysis commands.
Example 1:
Console Off
Never show the console, except if the <SPACE> key is pressed.
Example 2:
Console On
Show the console when running a macro or executing certain commands that give an output.
