Hello everyone,  
I’m using Pluto notebook and would like it to show the progress print as it’s running.  
If I run the following code in the terminal:

```julia
res = Optimization.solve(prob,BFGS(); callback = callback, maxiters=4027)

```

Then I get a printout from the callback function every iteration, however, if I run the same thing in Pluto I have to wait until it’s done processing to see the output.

Is there any way to see it during processing?

Thank you!
