Is it possible to determine, from within Python, whether Python
allocated or inherited the console? This could be useful to know in a

remain open, which won't happen if Python allocated the console itself.
It might be possible, but then there'd have to be lots of magic and
the result would be a different set of complaints ("sometimes I get a
black window, other times it just disappears").
That sounds a bit dismissive. Who would do that complaining? I would
like to be able to do this for scripts I write for myself. If these
scripts have something to tell me, they should make sure I get to see
that. If they don't, the console can disappear (if started from
explorer). I can do this with "input('Press enter when done')" easily;
however, if I start the script from a console window I get to press
enter too, needlessly.
Instead of trying to
detect and such, maybe there needs to be a standard recommendation for
an atexit or something - advise people to "stick this line at the top
of your program so the black window stays around". No magic, and
completely consistent.
I specifically asked for the opposite of consistency.

Gertjan.
