[Bug libfortran/32784] [win32] Using 'con' as assigned file generates Fortran runtime error: File 'con' does not exist

What name should I change 'con' to so that the write statement writes to the
console? I asked on the gfortran mailing list, and I was told to submit this
bug report. If it's as simple as changing the name, let me know and I can code
it in a change to NONMEM so that I can use gfortran to compile NONMEM.

It seems that con should work though. At the command prompt in Windows XP, the
following commands work just as I'd expect:
C:\> copy afile con
C:\> copy con anewfile
C:\> dir > con

Piping to con doesn't work, because con is a device, not a process:
C:\> dir | con
' ' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
