// .NAME vtkOutputWindow - base class for writing debug output to a console
// .SECTION Description
// This class is used to encapsulate all text output, so that it will work
// with operating systems that have a stdout and stderr, and ones that
// do not.  (i.e windows does not).  Sub-classes can be provided which can
// redirect the output to a window.

  // message to display. This allows redirection or reformatting of the
