Similar to the search window on Notepad ++ .

I use CE to add combat damage logs to games and would love to be able to hover the Lua output window on top of the game window ..

Code:
setProperty(getLuaEngine(), "FormStyle", 3)


Should do it.

Interesting, I made a simple lua extension that lets you toggle this (and optionally provide your own transparency value each time) from a CE menu item

autorun script

font change ?

log output formatting greatly benefits from similar length for characters (like courier new)

Here's a simple example that sets the output to use the same font as the script and then prints some random strings, I'm sure you could customize the specific font, size, etc. if you tried
Code:
local f=getLuaEngine()
f.mOutput.Font = f.mScript.Font

local function randChar()
  return string.char(math.random(('a'):byte(1), ('z'):byte(1)))
end
local function randString(length)
  if not length then length = math.floor(math.random(10, 100)) end
  local chars = {}
  for i=0,length do
    chars[#chars+1] = randChar()
  end
  return table.concat(chars)
end

for i=0,10 do
  print(randString(10))
end
