We run lots of multi-step SQL (create temp table, create second table by joining to first, drop first, repeat) and some steps may take a while to complete, in a program that may take hours.

In PC SAS, the log was visible while running. It may not have been the intended purpose, but it was an acceptable "progress meter" - keep glancing at the log to make sure line numbers are steadily getting bigger.

EG doesn't appear to show the log as it runs, unless there's an option we're missing. Is there a way to show the log as the program runs, so we can see steps are being completed and the job isn't just hung?
