In addition to writing text to standard output,
input operations, like gets() will also bring up a console.
So will graphics_mode(), video_config() etc.
Basically, any command that normally expects to work 
in a Windows text-mode console, or DOS window.

Windows GUI I/O will not normally create a console.
