Remarks about test_wconsole_binlarge.patch: - I don't know if isatty() is cheap or not. Is it a system call? If it might be slow, it should be only be called once in the constructor. On Windows, I don't think that isatty(fd) evoles. - I don't want to commit the tests because they write 66000 * 2 characters to the test output, which floods the test output. I don't know how to create a fake stdout which is a TTY but not the real stdout, especially on Windows. I think that manual tests only once should be enough. Or does anyone know how to create a fake TTY output?
