What is GuiConsoleTextCtrl exactly?



I may post here for help with GUI's in the future. I am learning how GUI's work.

If I remember correctly, it displays console output.

Hence the "Console".

This actually just gave me an idea.

What is the handle(name) of the consoles text control?

Well is there any way for me to have a console-like control where I can write to it? (like letting it able to output anything i put)

No, it only displays output from the engine console. You can't read or write to it.
Or well.. echo(value);

Even if you did get the controls of the console, the game won't let you do anything with it. So you wouldn't be able to read from it
