nothing from STDOUT for LiveCode CLI on Windows

[Dar Scott]

Oh.  I forgot about launch applications and console applications on Windows.

OK.  So, I used ‘start /w’ on a command window and that works as expected.  But shell() still has problems.  If I set hideConsoleWindows to false, I see the output on the window that flashes up.  But, whether true or false, I still don’t get the output in shell().  

Use open process?  Some other start options?
