On my Windows boxes I use ConsoleZ (https://github.com/cbucher/console)

when I start console VIM I get a brief flash of the VIM interface before
it switches back to the original command line display.  VIM is still
running (can be seen in task manager consuming CPU) but keyboard input
has no effect on - :q doesn't quit VIM and the command prompt doesn't
show any keyboard input.  This all started with patch 851, Saving and
restoring the console buffer does not work properly.

I have checked what happens with the command and powershell shells using
ConsoleZ and there is no difference in behaviour.  I am using version
1.15.0.15253 of ConsoleZ.  ConsoleZ is a fork of Console
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/).  I checked what happens with
Console version Console 2.00.148 and it behaves the same as ConsoleZ.

It may be an issue with the Console apps but I have been using both for
the last few years and until this patch have had no problems using
console VIM with them.  The finger pointing has to start somewhere so
let it be here.

Sorry, missed the usual required OS and build info. This is on Windows 7 amd64, fully patched, with a 64bit build of VIM using VS2012, debug and release. Build line of:

nmake -f make_mvc.mak WINVER=0x0501 DIRECTX=yes PYTHON=h:\python27 PYTHON_VER=27 DYNAMIC_PYTHON=yes

Hmm, ok, the DIRECTX=yes looks unnecessary for a console VIM. Removed it and tried again. Still hangs, but I don't get the flash of the VIM interface now.

HTH - TTFN
