Re: Message Window

[Adrian Oehm]

Hi

I'm running in the GUI, not in Terminal, so I guess I'll have to close/clear 
the window manually - and learn to make less mistakes!

I have tried Frescobaldi, but I can't get it to run properly - I have issues 
with setting up the poppler stuff etc that I haven't been able to fix.  So I'm 
waiting patiently for someone with more skills than I have (which is just 
enough to be dangerous!) to build a OSX installer. (if anyone has any tips, let 
me know!)
