Comment
When output is displayed in Rich Text Format (RTF) this lets you insert or remove comments in the Output window at the line containing the current cursor position.
Selection in new window
This opens the currently selected text in the Output or in a text edit window into a secondary window, maintaining the same format as in the primary window. If there is no selection in the window, then all the contents of the window are displayed in the secondary window. This is to allow easier comparisons between sections of the window, where they cannot be on the screen at the same time. When editing a command file, it could be used to keep a window of the original text to compare with the edited text.
Next Error Message
Moves the cursor to the next error message in the window. If the active window is not the Output window, then the Output window will be brought up above any others and the cursor will be placed on the next error message in this window.
Previous Error Message
Moves the cursor to the previous error message in the window. If the active window is not the Output window, then the Output window will be brought up above any others and the cursor will be placed on the previous error message in this window.
