I tried to abstract the Transcript API from the Pharo perspective in https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/15528/Add-TTranscript-and-DailyNonInteract... If the Cuis Transcript implementation conformed to this, it could become just a plugin replacement/alternative, next to others already present.

Hi guys
the Transcript in Pharo is that it's not asynchronous so I can't use it in VM development to show the current progress of the simulation. For example: 1 to: 100 do: [ :i | 0.1 seconds asDelay wait. Transcript show: 'x'. ] => on Squeak, this shows a x every 0.1 second in the Transcript => on Pharo, nothing happens during 10 seconds then all the x are shown.
Hi, I updated the fogbugz entry with a changeset containing the sources Stef already put here, so that it should be easy for anybody to load CuisTranscript into a Pharo image and have a look.
Today I did a new commit to the Cuis repo. The Cuis image is now in Cog format (6505) instead of Closures format (6504). I hope this allows you to run Cuis in your system.
I also addressed some of the issues you raised. I optimized the refresh, and avoided the "bolder text" effect.
Now, Time millisecondsToRun: [ 1000 timesRepeat: [ Transcript show: 'x' ] ]. takes 2 ms, even while updating the Display. (Hundreds of times faster).
I hope the slugginess you see also gets better.
IMHO another solution has to be found, or a big review of this has to be done. see details in fogbugz entry.
