Dear JavaScripters:

     I sometimes want to run something for quite some time.  An
example is when I am checking system limits, but later, it could be
something such as processing transactions.

     I could let it run blind, but especially when testing, that is
not a good idea.  I could put alert()s in, but then I get interrupted
by them.  I would like to be able to start whatever it is going and
watch (or not).

     How can I simply have JavaScript report as it is executing? Like:
          100 things done
          200 things done
          300 things done
          ...

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
