st: displaying loop counter in mata

[Patrick Roland <patrick.rolande@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I'm trying to get mata to display the loop index, as in the following code:

for(i=1;i<=3;i++){	
i
d = luinv(runiform(1000,1000))
}

I find that this works fine on Stata 11.2 on my laptop, but not on
Stata 12 installed on a server and accessed using the text-based
interface. Instead it finishes the loop and displays all output at
once. Does anyone know how to get mata to display the index as it
comes it it, rather than at the end of the loop?
