It sounds like code.exe is starting up in "the background" (for lack of a
better word) and returns control to the caller before code.exe exits. What
happens when you start code.exe from the console? If the console continues
accepting input after code.exe has started, then it's incompatible with
fossil in this reg6, as fossil expects the call to return only after the
editor has quit.
