I'm just capturing the console output. I have no influence on what
actually will be captured. That seems to depend on the Windows version.
I just want to _see_ all output -- normal output and error messages, I
do not (try to) set the cursor to the line causing the error.

Running my programs with EXWC.EXE (instead of EXW.EXE), this might work
on Win XP. I'll try it out and tell you what happens on my system,
thanks!!
