Bug comments restored from Gmane.org:

It is supposed that this app acts like an enhanced "DOS Command prompt window" 
that supports JP soft's 4DOS features under M$ windows GUI without using the 
4DOS DOS-mode binary. 
When running under Wine,the window is drawn correctly, menus are ok, but it 
does not display text in the app's command text window (it displays "?" 
character instead of typed characters), this text appears instead on linux's 
tty from where wine was invoked.
(must change text colors in the app to see the "?" characters, otherwise it 
appears to be "blank").
Moreover, the app open a second window that is supposed to be the console for 
output of the typed commands that is broken (cannot show its content)
I'm reporting this version of Take Command, because lastest (5.0) version does 
not work at all under wine (starts debugger).

Take command window after typing "dir". Output is shown in the Linux shell
window while the
main window show inverted "?" signs. To see the "?" signs is necessary to change
default foreground & background colors in the app otherwise the text is displayed as
"blank". Behind the Konsole & Take Command window is TCMD window that is filled with
other Xwindow's content.

Isn't it a console bug? If so this should be assigned to the wine-console component.

Output is diverted to console (bug). It should be inside the text area of 
TCMD32.EXE window (below the menu bar).

In a mail from: Jukka Heinonen <jhei <at> iki.fi>
 I have a feeling that bug #1352 is what prevents newer TakeCommand/32
 versions from running. I have no idea what causes this bug.

 I didn't find older TakeCommand/32 versions mentioned in bug #1350
 but TakeCommand/16 seems to show similar behaviour. It looks like
 TC/16 calls DOS int21 routines for input/output and expects 
that those interrupts somehow interact with TC/16 window. Input
 related problem is quite easy to fix but I don't know how
 TC/16 expects its window to be updated via int21.
