I've been following this for a while now, inactively because I don't use windows. I have to ask the question why not write a quick replacement for the command window, if all we are interested in is logging calls? It would be possible to do this in Assembler I'm guessing - using NAsm and using

In my experience, worst case is having the terminal (console) window open but covered (partially or completely) by another window, least bad is to have the console window selected. Best case for when the console window is not selected is to have it minimised. On NT like systems, it feels as if
