When you write a Windows program you can define it as a console app or a windows app. A console app expects stdout to go to a console window, and you have to include the C runtime library with the program or link it dynamically to a specific version of the CRT dll. If you don't supply a console window you can still pipe stdout to another program or file. If, on the other hand, you write a windows app then stdout goes to the screen. The engine for LiveCode, Runrev, Metacard is written as a console app, so any stdout output can be easily captured by other programs but not to the screen unless you manage the redirection or piping yourself. You can't change this. Not without changing the engine. -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
