Open BCB6.HLP (or BCB5.HLP for the free-command-line fellows).
In the Find tab, type
"Example of creating a console application"
Ignore the parts about creating/using a dll. The example tells you how
to create a console application, and shows cout being used.

Does printf() work with the above code?
I would think if printf works, that cout would too.
I don't do C++ much, and consider streams too messy/fussy to bother
with. Others may know the magic incantations to get cout synced to the
new console.
