Hi,
I am testrunning an RCP app that writes to stdout (which means I see the
output in the console view). It writes a lot, and I'd like to keep it
running while I make modifications in the editor. However, every time
the app writes something, the "console view" seems to obtain the focus,
preventing me from editing code. This 'feels' strange, I never felt
anything similar happened to me before.. I might well be wrong and this
might well be the expected behaviour, but I think it smells fishy..
This is on eclipse 3.5 under linux gtk.

You might also want to experiment with the
Window->Preferences->Run/Debug->Console settings for Show when program
writes to standard out/error.
