Console text is smeared [message #1089843]

I'm trying to write to the console by getting a reference to the console's document and using the command:

consoleDoc.set(text)

Later, I add hyperlinks. This is all done in a thread using:

Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable() {public void run(){
	writeToConsole();
     }
});

However, the text shows up smeared in the console (see attached screenshot).

Any idea why? Is this an Eclipse bug?

Hi,

I am using the org.eclipse.ui.console.MessageConsole as well and write text to
org.eclipse.ui.console.MessageConsoleStream. You get the stream from the MessageConsole by calling
newMessageStream().

Writing to the stream might be better than set text directly to the document.

Thanks for the answer.
I tried that at first, but what I need to do is to write some text into the console and then add hyperlinks to the text. If I use MessageConsole then by the time I'm adding the hyperlinks the text that was written into the MessageConsole still hasn't appeared in the console itself, and I'm getting a bad location exception.
