In re my previous post, needless to say it is nearly impossible to properly operate a terminal if the background scripts interrupts each minute by injecting messages directly into the character console. Particularly when you are trying to edit a text file in vim at the moment.

I saw the light of reason and am now simply appending the messages to a text file. Then, I can open another terminal, set it to follow the text file using tail -f file. Whew. My shell is calm and peaceful again.
