Examples

This demonstration creates two console windows, one is a memory window and one is a text window.

When the pin A.0 goes high the view of each switches - the text window displays as memory and vice versa. Though the view changes, the type of console stays the same - one is fixed memory, the other is a stream that is always added to.
