When unchecked, it used to open an xterm, in which output of write/writeln
would appear.  But this may have been in the GTK version using X11.
When I try it now, it gives an error

	Debugger: Exception while creating process: Executable not found:
	"xterm"

But I have a wrong path somewhere ...  Maybe someone else can try as well.
