Description:
If a program prints invalid characters like raise exception.create(#$FC) or writeln(#0#1 (closed)#2 (closed)#3 (closed)), the output window does not just not show the character, but the entire line containing it is missing. Sometimes even the entire window stays blank.
Then you think the program failed to print anything, when it actually had memory corruption or output with an invalid encoding.
An actual console shows � or ? for such characters.
