Well, now things are changing... so the problem is not Windows console programs
as said before... because Cygwin compiled programs ARE Windows console programs
exactly as said. Ok, but because std(out,in,err) can't be redirected does not
means that the program can't run and that's what's happening. Program is reporting
errorcode "1" and can't start. Why does it happens?? Do you know?


Thank you anyway...
