printing message to command line

[lefti]

Hi,
I have a c program test.c that is build into a test.exe I have an external program that calls test.exe. I would like to debug test.c by placing some print messages. I have only been able to print to a file. I would like to print the message onto some kind of console. I have tried fprintf(stderr,) fprintf(stdout,). What command must I use? How does c know to print to a command window that is already open?

Thanks
Lefti

Usually a program will print to the command window that it was launched from.

Is there a reason why printf() wouldn't be appropriate?

Wait a min... are you compiling it as a windows program?
