Hello jkinraid, I would say a quirk of Windows (and an annoying one at that), but regardless it's a bug in Rebol. Windows is "working as designed" and it is the responsibility of the much maligned programmer to work round that. In windows, if the program is to run without a real GUI, it should not be compiled as a GUI program. I have seen this problem myself. One answer is to make the guts of Rebol a DLL, then to have a console mode driver program for non-GUI work and another GUI program for GUI work, or to build two different programs entirely. It is a major pain to write a single program (under Windows) which has the option to run with or without GUI :-( Actually, I'm hoping I'm wrong, I'd love to know how to do it without compiling two different "exe"s.
