GETSTDOUT function

Purpose

Return the handle of the initial standard output device.

Syntax

hStdOut& = GETSTDOUT

Remarks

The standard output handle can be used with some Win32 API calls.  It can also be used with the OPEN HANDLE statement, if you wish to treat the screen as a file.  You should use CONSOUT to determine if file or device redirection is in effect.
