  /// Warning: If the application is of type GUI and it is started from a console,
  /// this will NOT log to the calling console but create a new one.
  /// This is because the way cmd.exe works: if the application is of type GUI,
  /// then is immediately detaches from cmd.exe which doesn't wait. This means that
  /// there is never a console to attach to except if a new console is created
  /// elsewhere in the app.
  /// In case this class is used from a console, then there is no guarantee that
  /// the messages will be
  /// displayed in chronological order.
