1. Windows console error exit

Is there any way to get a exw console program not to hang with a "Press
Enter..." after an abnormal exit?  Even if you set crash_file("") it still hangs.
 I'm using one program to open another, but if the second one fails for some
reason, it is stuck there forever.  Ideally, I would like the ex.err file to be
created, but for the program to exit without any interaction from the user.

???

Define abnormal exit.
It is trivial to catch abort(n) but It sounds you are looking for a
shortcut me & many would scream over.

A syntax error, type error, 1/0 error -- anything that causes an ex.err file to
be created.  I have a parent program running a child program.  I want the parent
to be able to re-run the child if the child crashes -- the child crashing in this
context can be considered normal behavior -- the parent will examine the
resulting ex.err file.  But the child never exits because it is sitting there
with a "Press Enter...".  I can TerminateProcess() the child, but then I have to
come up with some complex way to determine if the child has aborted (but is
hanging).  It would be much better if the process simply terminated itself.  I
imagine if I bought the source code, this would be a trivial change, or maybe
someone can compile me such a version?
