Okay, THEATRE does this. (released date July 28th, hype hype :-) )

Set up a character array. The use the @stream_output 3 Arrayname command
to redirect printing to the array instead of the screen. Then go
@stream_output -3 to turn it off.

Use can then use the &print_table command to print the array.

You have to do it that way because you don't know how long the text will
be until it is printed.
