title: How to output in Salesforce?
body: <p>I'm writing an Apex program that reads through a database and processes record. Each time I process a record, I want to output a message. Currently I'm using System.Debug to do this, but the debug log is cluttered with so much that this doesn't seem like the right approach.</p>
  
  <p>What other ways can I generate screen or logfile output in SalesForce?</p>
