If you have console.log() or such in code executed by NR, where does the out of the such end up? I have a NR module calling a class I previously created for just node, and wondered where console output directive end up? Not to be confused with node.log() of course.

It will be written straight to the standard output of the Node-RED process. So it will end up in the same place as the Node-RED log output.

Humm... I am not seeing that. I have NR module, calling a node class I wrote separate of NR. I require the class, the given function executes, which has the console.log statement, but watching the node red log, I don't see it.
