but they don't clarify what happens when the parent has no console. I want to see the test program (CreateProcess with console inheritance, called from a process without any console, starting a CUI process). I'm still not sure that it will create the console.
If I understand the wine loader right, and didn't overlook something in the relay log, the initial wine process doesn't start the first process by a CreateProcess call. So no chance to fiddle withe the flags.
that's why we use wineconsole... wine doesn't create any console, wineconsole does...
