Tested you program on a Windows machine. Seems to work as expected, so
I'd remove the current wndows-command-line-wrapper.c in favour of
yours.
One question, can you teach you program to do nothing when no redirect
is needed?
I mean, if no " > log.txt", then just print everything on the
stdout/stderr as usual.
Please, after addressing Marc-André comments about Unicode, can you
submit a v2, but then to the virt-tools-list? It's a solution for
virt-viewer, so it's better if we do the review there.
