I have not ACL6 at hand at present time. Could you look in the console (see 
in one of the IDE menus), output could be there.

With ACL6 *beta* I had defined the following functions. Use debug-pane to 
print to.

As far as I remember *standard-output* was bound in the IDE process at 
startup time to what debug-pane returns. Notice each ACL process maintains 
its own bindings for some CL variables like *standard-output*.

;;; debug frame window
(defun debug-frame ()
   (devel::listener-frame))

;;; the current (selected) listener debug window
(defun debug-win ()
   (cg::command-child (debug-frame)))

;;; single pane of current (selected) listener window
(defun debug-pane ()
   (frame-child (debug-win)))
