Redirecting CellPrint output












3












$begingroup$


How can I make g; or h; print the same output as f;? I am trying to capture the output of one function and put it in a document elsewhere, but the CellPrint output is not cooperating.



f := Module[{},

  Print["Bob"];

  CellPrint[Cell["", Background -> Blue, "Print"]];

  Print["Bill"]]



printlist = {};

Block[{Print = AppendTo[printlist, {##}] &,

   CellPrint = AppendTo[printlist, {##}] &}, f];



g := Map[CellPrint, ExpressionCell[#, "Print"] & /@

    Flatten[printlist, 1]]



h := CreateDocument[ExpressionCell[#, "Print"] & /@

    Flatten[printlist, 1]]



f;

g;

          a) notice that depending on the settings Print may be printed to the MessagesNotebook while CellPrint always goes to the parent notebook.



          b) I'm not sure what is the context so I will just leave those links here:



          Can I Print to a different notebook? (within the context of the same kernel)



          Temporarily redirect the output of Print[ ] to a second file



          c) the answer:



          The problem is that you are doing CellPrint @ ExpressionCell @ Cell[.... Here is what you can do:



          f := Module[{}, Print["Bob"];
          
  CellPrint[Cell["", Background -> Blue, "Print"]];
          
  Print["Bill"]]
          

          
printlist = {};
          
Block[{Print = 
          
    AppendTo[printlist, ExpressionCell[Row[{##}], "Print"]] &, 
          
   CellPrint = AppendTo[printlist, {##}] &}, f];
          

          
g := Map[CellPrint, Flatten[printlist, 1]]
          

          
h := CreateDocument[Flatten[printlist, 1]]

            Why not wrap ExpressionCell only around Print calls? For example:



            printlist={};
            
Block[
            
    {
            
    Print = AppendTo[printlist, Thread[ExpressionCell[{##}, "Print"]]]&,
            
    CellPrint = AppendTo[printlist, #]&
            
    },
            
    f
            
];
            

            
g := CellPrint /@ Flatten @ printlist
            
h := CreateDocument[
            
    Flatten @ printlist
            
]


            Then:



            g;



            enter image description here




            and:



            nb = h;
            
CurrentNotebookImage[nb]



            enter image description here




            seem to do what you want.

              CellPrint >> Details:



              In CellPrint[expr]:




              If expr has head TextCell, ExpressionCell, or CellGroup, it is inserted unchanged into the notebook.




              So changing heads Cell to Sequence in the first argument of ExpressionCell works:



              ClearAll[g, h]
              

              
g := Map[CellPrint, ExpressionCell[# /. Cell -> Sequence, "Print"] & /@ 
              
   Flatten[printlist, 1]]
              

              
h := CreateDocument[ExpressionCell[# /. Cell -> Sequence, "Print"] & /@ 
              
   Flatten[printlist, 1]]
              

              
g;

                          Why not wrap ExpressionCell only around Print calls? For example:

                                        Is this a new Fibonacci Identity?

                                        6 1 $begingroup$ I have found the following Fibonacci Identity (and proved it). If $F_n$ denotes the nth Fibonacci Number, we have the following identity begin{equation} F_{n-r+h}F_{n+k+g+1} - F_{n-r+g}F_{n+k+h+1} = (-1)^{n+r+h+1} F_{g-h}F_{k+r+1} end{equation} where $F_1 = F_2 = 1$ , $r leq n$ , $h leq g$ , and $n, g, k in mathbb{N}$ . It is not too hard to show that this identity subsumes Cassini's Identity, Catalan's Identity, Vajda's Idenity, and d'Ocagne's identity to name a few. I have done a pretty thorough literature review, and I have not found anything like this, but I am still wondering if anyone has seen this identity before? I found this by accident after noticing some patterns in some analysis work I was doing, so if this is already known I would be curious to see w...
