This Gist contains the sample code for my blog post titled Understanding OutputDebugString. This Gist contains two programs. The first program will simply capture the debug output written using OutputDebugString from any process and will write the debug messages to standard output. The second program will modify the first by running a specific program as a child process and outputting the debug messages from that process only.
