I've already changed the debug part so you can choose between trying to redirect the output within the editor or shell out to a regular command prompt. The command prompt is far more stable then my redirect. Also using the command prompt I think I can pass the "-d" at the end of the command so Kix32 will run in its own debug mode. I'll do this until my programming gets to a level where I can fully interact with a console window. Since I plan on witing a couple days to fix other stuff I can send you just the .exe with the changes if you want to see if this works better for you. Let me know,

Allan.
