> This patch allows remote-viewer to redirect output/error streams to
> files.
> Also if launched from a console program (for instance from the command
> prompt) you are able to see output from the console where you launch
> the program.
> This allow to launch the program with a syntax like
>   > remote-viewer.exe --debug > log.txt 2>&1
> or simply
>   > remote-viewer.exe --debug
