No, the "console" is a Windows thing (well not really, the idea goes back
a long way, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Console). Unix systems do not
need this. The input, output, and error streams for the Squeak VM can go
to the console on Windows, or they are simply connected to whatever shell
you are using on a unix system.  Actually, the whole idea of the input,
output, and error streams are just a part of the commonly accepted C
runtime library (available on most operating systems) and are not really
part of the Squeak environment at all.
