[forge-users] How do I run Forge shell from the code ?

Antonio, if I understand you correctly, you want to be able to run the
Forge shell via the Forge sources in the IDE. Unfortunately there's not
really a way to do that currently since as George says, the IDE terminals
basically can't handle TAB characters or backspace very well.

Though this does give me the idea that we should really provide this as a
feature somehow if possible. Maybe as a "Run" type. "Run in Forge Console",
so that you could try out any application in the Forge terminal. This would
obviously let you run Forge sources as well (E.g. Running the Bootstrap
class in the Forge Console would give you the same result as running the
Forge Console and starting Forge via the green button.

Koen, is this something you think we can do at some point?
