An easy one: Outputting showdb to new window
 
This is probably easy but I'm having complete brain block on figuring out how to do it.

I've got a alias that finds all entries in a db with a matching name, then displays each entry with a showdb that matches.

I want to spew #showdb out to a window called ID. How?

#FORALL @CurrentobjREQ {
#showdb %i
}

:ID:#showdb %i

If that doesn't work, we'll need to create a workaround since I don't think #WINDOW allows you to use #commands.

Doesn't appear to work. Spews a bunch of %{i}: to the window instead.

How about pumping all the #showDB's into a variable? I can spew a variable to the window if I can get all the showdb's concatted into a variable.
