In section A2.6 HDL survival guide, section HDL syntax errors, there is a comment that messages may be off the bottom of screen. This is what IBM used to do, what was called a "Documentation APAR", to turn a bug into a feature by documenting the errant behaviour. Personally, I think the error message should be more clearly visible in the hardware simulator. My screen resolution in landscape is 1366 x 768, which I don't consider "small" . Apart from that - which is a real problem when someone is just starting with this Nand2Tetris - the idea behind this gate and chip simulator to trach how chips are designed and tested first in an HDL - is excellent.
