I want to see each command immediately as it is being executed

problem: feedback on the commands only once the table is complete, is too late I want to see each command (i.e. line in Fitnesse script) as it is being executed. Only once the table is complete, is too late; some tables have many commands, and you have to wait a long time before you get feedback.

solution: show each command as it is being executed Fitnesse pops up a window at the start of the script, that shows each command as it is being executed. Maybe it is sufficient if only last n commands are shown. Window closes when script ends.

alternative: write commands to file, so that a tail command will show it This would make it more difficult to use because the user needs to start a tail command.

see pull request Pull request is implementation that shows slim instructions in Swing window. https://github.com/unclebob/fitnesse/pull/1469
