Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Using the CMM2 with a capture card and Tera Term effectively gives a two monitor setup which is very cool.  

Is it possible to write output to the terminal window only? - this would be really useful for debug data for game development / graphics work.

On a different but related note, has anyone noticed oddities when pasting text into the program editor via Teraterm.  The first few characters work OK and single lines are fine, but carriage returns behave oddly - either being ignored, or characters after the carriage return corrupting the rest of the input stream.

OPTION CONSOLE SERIAL will disable the console output to the VGA screen and send all output to the serial console.
This is useful for debugging graphics applications as diagnostic PRINT statements will not corrupt the screen display.

In TeraTerm, try putting in a delay under setup/serial port/ msec/line

Working with a few changes.  Transmit delay of 1ms/char, 500ms/line and New-line terminal transmit changed to CR+LF.

Just about quicker than popping the SD card out for smaller fragments of code.

500ms/line is way too slow
try 100 and scrap the character delay.
