There is some code in Edita which attempts to capture console output,
specifically in eacons.ew and eacons.exw. As a disclaimer, it is squarely aimed
at running Eu source code via exwc.exe and is less than 100% perfect.

What I did find (on win98) is that I needed a separate process (eacons.exw) to
be the sacrificial lamb that locks up, with eacons.ew looking after it and
sending it a wakeup/die message. Feel free to steal/ignore any of that.
