I would like to try and line things up nicely in the R window, but am not sure the best way to do this. Below is a toy example. Suppose I want the value of 10 to be just below "iteration" and the value of -1234 to be just below 'Log Likelihood'.

 Sure you just dont want to use the progress bar functions from the
plyr package:

?plyr::create_progress_bar

 another example of things being in the wrong package....
