    having two console windows in c++ application

    as the title suggests, i need to have 2 separate console windows in my application. one should be the "main" console, and the other should be an independent one that has its own inout and output streams. i've read that it's possible to do it using WIN API by creating a new process. i've considered this but i can't seem to get it working:

    can anyone please shed some light for me or help me understand how to do it at all?

    thanks
