Thanks for the lengthy explanation, but if you had read my mail carefully, you would have seen that I never doubted that windows needs something like this with its crappy cmdln.
I was just looking at the Linux side as my qoute should have made clear. I wanted to know why Linux needs a new 'debug monitoring standard' not why windows su... aehm I mean has problems. This I knew already.
My conclusion is that Linux does not need a new standard but Lazarus debug output can be improved. Perhaps mplemented via OutputDebugString() on windows and some stdout magic on real ...aehm I mean other operating systems or a self made cross-plattform solution.
We agree that we want a better debug output but the problem is more pressing on Win than on Linux, as there are easy workarounds on the *nix side.
I just don't like bringing windows solutions to Linux where the problem simply does not exist.
