Default Colored text in output window?

Hi,

I know I'm probably pushing my luck here.. (Everything is working great with IB! I'm very, very, very happy this week.)

I rely heavily on the output window for all sorts of debugging output. Any chance I can color the text that shows up? Can I embed color-commands in the text string, a la "ANSI color" from the old Telnet days?

If you guys can tell me what C# class you're using to render the output window, maybe I can dig through microsoft's docs for ideas also.

Yes... I know I should probably just put together my own GUI for output messages at this stage....

Unfortunately the output window does not support text formatting, since it's a simple TextBox control (which is the fastest).
