Cool. If you had released this a couple of weeks ago I might never have
written mine.
Still, I'll probably continue hacking at my much-less-complete(r)
replacement,
as it is small and light codewise and I'm already using it. ;-)

/F's console library gives me nothing but headaches (spelled fatal
exceptions)
but I had already written my own console extension before I even heard about
his; otherwise I'd have rebuilt /F's from source and run it through some
debugging.
My Windows environment is a bit non-standard, which often explains such
problems. (My Linux box is a bit non-standard and runs like a champ).
