I have a screenshot of how the console looks like if you output too much
to it. This is the printing of a very large collection. If I make the
collection even bigger I get a crash with almost the same error message,
only this time the exitdata was 21000e. But this number seems to vary
with every crash.

For the Java console, this can be solved by going Preferences ->
Run/Debug -> Console and there checking Fixed Width Console. This
breaks the output automatically and solves the problem.

I saw similar scrambled text when committing the deletion of a large
directory.
So the simple solution would be to make this checkbox available for the
SVN console too, as is possible for the CVS console. Shouldn?t be too
difficult, I assume, since they probably inherit from the same abstract
class, right?

Cheers, H.
