Processing console multiline output is visually misaligned #49

Description

@Purestone

Problem

In Processing console output, the first line has a timestamp prefix, but from the second line onward there is no timestamp prefix.

Because of this, for a multi-line output block, line 2 and later do not align with line 1 content and look visually misaligned.

Repro

  • Run a sketch that prints a string containing newline characters.
  • Observe console output in the Processing sidebar panel.

Current behavior

  • Line 1: has timestamp + content.
  • Line 2+: no timestamp width offset, starts earlier than line 1 content.\

Impact

  • Multi-line logs are harder to read and scan.
