For convenience and easy debugging use my free [http://killzonekid.com/arma-console-extension-debug_console-dll-v3-0/ debug_console] extension which will automatically launch a console window with your output. It can also write to file. To install drop ''debug_console.dll'' into main Arma directory.
Examples:
<code>"debug_console" [[callExtension]] "Default grey"; //default output
"debug_console" [[callExtension]] "Red line without timestamp #1000"; //red with timestamp
"debug_console" [[callExtension]] "Yellow line with timestamp #1101"; //yellow without timestamp
"debug_console" [[callExtension]] "Writing to file ~0001"; //output to file
"debug_console" [[callExtension]] ""; //empty line
"debug_console" [[callExtension]] "A"; //beep sound
"debug_console" [[callExtension]] "C"; //clear console
"debug_console" [[callExtension]] "X"; //close console</code>
