Description
ScummVM doesn't output anything to stdout/stderr anymore for Win32 when launched from a console window. And when launched from Explorer, it doesn't open the console window as it used to do.
So it's impossible to do for example "scummvm.exe --help"
(stdout.txt and stderr.txt also don't exist)
Using CVS from today (25.11.2006)

Actually I meant SVN, not CVS (sorry for the confusion). I've built using the MSVC8 project files from SVN. Anyway, I fixed it now, the project files default to /Subsystem:Windows instead of /Subsystem:Console
Yes, it's been a while since I last compiled something with MSVC, I should have noticed earlier.
Thanks anyway

ScummVM stopped using CVS long ago, try checking out current source code via SVN.
Sounds like you are compling you own build, make sure the console output isn't disabled by '-mwindows' option of linker. It is usually added the the default SDL library settings of sdl-config.
