Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 Replying to [comment:10 HairyDude]:

 console.

 I suppose I should be more specific. IIRC, you can run both `mintty`
 (which is what MSYS/Cygwin use) and `cmd.exe` (which PowerShell runs a
 variant of) from `console2`. Which particular one are you using from
 `console2`?

 And it shouldn't matter whether you're outputting to `stdout` or to files,
 you should still experience roughly the same errors.
