           Summary: OutputDebugString does not do what it's supposed to do
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ewfewfe at wh4f.org


OutputDebugString seems to be "invisible" to other apps in wine, it just prints
a message to the terminal. I saw a mailing list discussion about this problem
but I got the impression this wasn't going to be changed anytime soon (because
it's "good enough"). Well, it isn't.

As wrong as it may be, some programs rely on parsing other programs debug
output, and this breaks down in wine. The specific application I'm having
trouble with is FF7Music, some hack that uses debug output to replace the music
in Final Fantasy VII.

A fix for this would be greatly appreciated.
