A console application is a term used to describe an application that runs on a terminal like environment and does its work and input/output using text commands, and usually is a single threaded application unless specifically designed otherwise. These applications usually don't use graphics UI, and even if needed, the UI usually does not utilize system GUI controls (uses custom drawn graphics like controls). Hth, cmiiw

A console application is a computer program designed to be used via a text-only computer interface, such as a text terminal, the command line interface of some operating systems (Unix, DOS, etc.) or the text-based interface included with most Graphical User Interface (GUI) operating systems, such as the Win32 console in Microsoft Windows, the Terminal in Mac OS X, and xterm in Unix. A user interacts with a console applications using only a keyboard and display screen.
