(Minimo Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Terry Owen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Minimo .002

I had the following command console installed - see below:

http://www.symbolictools.de/public/pocketconsole/

When I tried to run Minimo - it kept starting the PocketConsole and then Minimo.
 There were too many issues to list here, but when I uninstallled PocketConsole,
Minimo then ran pretty well for a dev build.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install PocketConsole
2. Run Minimo
3. Observe console starting when Minimo is called




Experienced with a Toshiba e750 PocketPC 2002 with 64 megs of ram; 30 free.

I should add that downloaded the precompiled version.  I didn't build it myself.

At startup, I map stderr and stdout to COM1 using the following:

    _wfreopen(L"COM1:", L"w+",stdout);
    _wfreopen(L"COM1:", L"w",stderr);

Maybe that this doesn't work when PocketConsole is installed.

This should work fine now.  Running PocketCMD with Minimo causes no problems.
