The other VGUI Surfaces do in fact have HWND's like friends, servers, etc, so it's possible the console does have one.. maybe.
You can't enumerate child windows of the mod window, because it seems to have none, in fact all the VGUI Surfaces I see are not 'parented' by anything in Spy++'s view at least.
You could try looking for all of the 'Surface' Windows with FindWindow(); instead, but I'm not sure how simple it is to get the text of every 'Surface' that has "" for a window name parameter...
Sounds kind of dodgy to me anyhow.

condump is autocompleted, and dumps a file out, but seems to not write any text, maybe this is just a bug in steam at this point?
I'm assuming you don't mean just highlight it all and copy ? That seems to work ok, if you're just looking at some sort of console output now and again anyhow ;).
