Create Console from existing console -

Basically this is what I need to do:

Console A spawns Console B:

Console A maintains input and simply uses console B as a seperate window for display purpose only.

However, from what I have read and been told this is not possible. But, I know that someone here probably has a fix for me =)

Thanks in advance!
