Umm, this is prertty normal behavior. The reason is so you can see your code
without the monitor flickering (my monitor is really bad at switching graphics
mode and produces slow results). It does say no display swap... if it's that
important, in the preferences click "redirect stdout" and your cout statements
will appear at the end of program execution.

Otherwise, stick with plain old F7
