[kepler-dev] To know the end of an actor

[Michal Owsiak]

We have developed, recently, slightly modified version of Display that 
is called MultiDisplay.

It has few advantages over Display:

1. it has output port that produces outputs in case there are listeners 
(this solves the issue you are describing)

2. we are using tabs for displaying messages - this solution makes it 
possible to collect all messages within single window

If you are interested with that, I can prepare demo workflow for you 
(for tomorrow).

Cheers

Michal
