List the current configs so they are always legible?

Is there a way to list the current configs on the console so that they are always legible no matter what is going on the screen? Switching the current colorfield is not a good solution. Perhaps there is an undocumented way to send the console messages to the OS X console?

gforce does pretty good at trying to create contrast of text on display.
but there are sometimes it is hard to read. See my post about config menus.
There's gotta be a better way.

Perhaps there are limitations as to what an iTunes plugin is allowed to do, but certainly the standalone GForce application could easily have all the necessary devices required for status and control.

The config menu is essentially possible. I have noticed (and used to its advantage) that when a script is running a Shift U will cause that script to be recompiled. GForce keeps running that script with its changes. Therefore one could create a separate GUI application, say in Applescript Studio for example, that would provide all the available configs via pulldowns for a user to select. This app would rewrite on the fly the contents of the currently running script. A simple Shift U after letting that application rewrite the script would apply those changes.
