That doesn't work, either.

I type the hello.exe command from the console, rather than
double-clicking on it. I wondered if it had something to do with the
neeed to flush stdout, or something. But interestingly, the cosole
window becomes deselected when I run hello.exe, suggesting that it's
creating some kind of invisible window that then gets destroyed, or
something.
