print to stdout from executable on MacOS

I was wondering if there is a way to print to stdout on MacOS when running a jsl executable. the print command prints to the log, which is lost once the executable finishes.

Re: print to stdout from executable

I believe I have found a solution below. however I was wondering if this workaround is the easiest.

stdout_print = Function({msg},
	{_tty},
	Run Program(
		Executable("/bin/sh"),
		Options({"-c", "ps -o tty= -p $(ps -o ppid= -p $(ps -o ppid= -p $$)) | tr -d ' ' > /tmp/jmp_tty.txt"})
	);
	Wait(1);
	_tty = "/dev/" || Trim(Load Text File("/tmp/jmp_tty.txt"));
	Run Program(
		Executable("/bin/sh"),
		Options({"-c", "echo '" || msg || "' > " || _tty})
	);
);

stdout_print("hello");

JSL write to stdout and in general Craige has some posts somewhat related to this
