Windows GUI app with Console Window? : xharbour

Hi,

Is it possible to have a Windows GUI app (Fivewin) that calls a console
window where you can use:

? " hello"

in your code that than appears in the console window?

A user wants to have a Console Window (Like a 'Dos-Box') where he can
use ? "Hello world" to appear in that console window. So, the Windows
app should be able to open a 'dos-box'-alike window and send text to it.

Its mainly for keeping track of which files have been uploaded to a FTP
site. So the dos-box alike window is used as a outputwindow to see the
progress of the files uploaded. Like:

? "Starting upload"
FOR F=1 TO Len(aFiles)
? "Uploading file ", aFiles[f][1]
UploadFile( aFiles[f][1])
NEXT
? "Done"

I'm almost sure that if the GUI app is linked as a CONSOLE application, then
it will have the console window auto generated and all other windows as
well. If some functioning GT is linked, and if the GUI in question does not
use some #commands to affect the console usage of ? then it should work.
