Part of the idea behind using standardised output functions was that
they could be replaced. The thought was, rather than trying to parse
console-centric output, you'd swap in a different implementation of the
output functions that fed to, say, ncurses or a GUI. Then you'd swap
the driver logic with something that calls multiple tasks in order
rather than merely doing one thing and then exiting (there's proper
environment isolation to allow that).

Might be easier to do things that way...
