Re: Programatic way to save content of an Output Console?

- Have your module be a friend module to output2,

Hardly possible

 - Have an implementation dependency on output2

Its the way to go. I do it often to hack into hidden but very useful
features provided in the NBP and its clusters

- Find a way to invoke the code reflectively

I wouldn't recommend that
