Why a separate Console app?

There are many issues related to using a WPF application as a console app.

• WPF applications don't block the console. So, we cannot use it for scenarios like wait till capture is completed.
• Writing to console does not work by default
• If AttachConsole is used, the written content interferes with console prompt.
• And more ...
