Show program output in edita pane

Is it possible to redirect the output of Phix programs to the lower edita pane?
The constant resizing and closing of terminal windows is annoying.
Thanks for your work!

Sorry, only just spotted this, for some reason github didn't notify me.

It used to work a very (very) long time ago, and I believe I changed "Capture console output"
in parameterised run to "Always use specified command" for reasons lost in the mists of time.
In fact the help text still says

C:\Euphoria\bin\exwc.exe "C:\Program Files\Edita\eacons.exw" %08x C:\Euphoria\bin\exwc.exe "%s"

which should probably (now) be more like

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\pw.exe" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\demo\Edita\eacons.exw" %08x "C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\p.exe" "%s"

however I couldn't get it to work. I've also since penned demo\capture_console.exw which may
be (/yet prove to be the basis of) a better alternative to eacons.exw.

It all needs quite a bit of work.
