Hello:

I have a little watchdog utility for windows that runs each five minutes, like a unix cron ("Tareas programadas" in Spanish, scheduled tasks?). It opened a console window for a second and that was very annoying. So I used the switch -GW and there is no more flashing console bothering. But then I can't show any help or any output for debug from the prompt.

I can live with it, in fact, it usually uses a log file, but some times, when I'm installing, testing paramters etc, it's more handy to run the program from the prompt and see the result immediately or display the help instead of having to open logs.

Is there any way to open a console on the fly and send the output to the console?
