Another question - can the console window be "hidden" or do I have to use
"FreeConsole" if I want the window to go away.  I'd like to be able to show
and hide the console at will.  Can I continually "Free" and "Alloc" consoles
at will in an application to create, in effect, the ability to hide and show
the console?  I know I won't be able to see any previous messages written to
the console unless I buffer them up, but it would be better then nothing.
