Possible to show console messages (written with `message`) in a shiny ui?

[Dean Attali]

I don't understand R's message vs cat vs print vs etc. too deeply, but I'm wondering if it's possible to capture messages and who them in a shiny app?

Example: the following app can capture cat statements (and print statements as well) but not message statements

runApp(shinyApp(

  ui = fluidPage(

    textOutput("test")

  ),

  server = function(input,output, session) {

    output$test <- renderPrint({

      cat("test cat")

      message("test message")

    })

  }

))

Thanks!
