   Hello all,   
      
   I know that I can use wscript.stdout.write(line) (or just wscript.echo) and   
   wscript.stdin.read(line) for that.   
      
   The problem is that I need it to happen even when the script has its   
   standard input/output redirected (imagine a console-based "do you want to   
   continue (YN)" interaction)   
      
   Using Win32 I can just open "CONIN$" and "CONOUT$", but I can't get those to   
   work using OpenTextFile / CreateTextFile.   
      
   Any ideas ?   
      
   Regards,   
   Rudy Wieser
