No seriously, dump your output to a file.

> The console is limited for a reason: To deter people from using it to view output! Instead, I suggest you use a String to store your data in: String[] result = {""}; // ... result[0] = result[0] + "row i is " + i + "/n"; // ... saveStrings( "output.txt", result ); Untested code, YMMV.
