The class echo-area-pane
is used to implement the small window for user interaction, known as the Echo Area, which is at the bottom of Editor windows in the LispWorks IDE.
You should not normally need to work with this class directly. To add an Echo Area, pass :echo-area t
when making the editor-pane.
