Your welcome. I also just explored and learned this. I can also do this. tt := ThreadSafeTranscript new. tt openAsMorphLabel: 'My Transcript'. tt show: 'my content';cr. tt clear. tt show: 'my new content';cr. Seems to work as what I was originally hoping for. No syntax highlighting and no quoting as a comment required. Thought maybe this would be helpful to anyone in like situation. This is in a Pharo 1.3 image. Thanks. Jimmie On 8/31/2011 12:42 PM, Alexandre Bergel wrote:

hi!
Is there a way to open a text in a window in Pharo? Doing: Workspace openContents: 'hello world' shows <Mail Attachment.png>
Is there a way to remove the syntax highlighting? I have recently been using ws := Workspace openLabel: 'A Nice Label'. ws contents: '"', 'my contents', '"'.
ie: wrapping the contents with doubles quotes which simply make the contents a comment in the workspace.
This is what I noticed was being used for the workspaces opened in in new image.
I do wish we had a simple text box to receive such content which was not necessarily meant for syntax highlighting.
I am using Workspace in my situation to provide progress updates on background processes which take hours to accomplish their task.
I don't know if any of the recent work towards improving Transcript helps here. For me I would want an independent Transcript which I label and control. Not the general Transcript.
Hope this helps.
