Go to View/Messages and hit "Capture"
You mean, select Capture from menu? I did this and got an error messagebox saying:
Gtk-CRITICAL (recursed) **: file gtktextlayout.c: line 813 (gtk_text_layout_real_invalidate): assertion `layout->wrap_loop_count == 0' failed aborting...
and it crashed. Maybe because I have a Russian version of Windows 98.
Then I deleted my preferences.xml and run again. No change, dialogs.debug still has redirect="0" in the newly created prefs file, and the console pops up. This is in agreement with
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/inkscape/inkscape/src/preferences-skel...
so if you have some windows-only overriding it does not work. Please fix it. (E.g. by removing the redirect="0" from preferences-skeleton altogether, and in the code, using the default value of 1 within #ifdef WIN32, unless overridded by the prefs file. Note however that in this case, old installations which have redirect="0" in their prefs files will not be affected, and their users will have to enable it manually or delete their prefs to get this effect.)
Then I manually changed redirect="1" in prefs and run again. This time, it worked, no console window. However when I open the messages window I did not see there any gtk-wimp warnings - they seem to have disappeared into the ether!
