Bug Description

The current way of having an error dialog pop up on NumExp errors is annoying. I think it might be better to display the errors inline in the TextView.

Any comments on this? Does it sound reasonable to send error messages to the console, instead of error dialogs?

I'm agree with you ! I would say it just needs a different color or a different font... just to be different.

I really prefer errors in the console (red messages, for instance).
Well, at least I am used to them in Mathematica ;)
