I've used MS Visual Studio before, but not lately.

When I configure it to build a console application, I can write,
compile, and run a C program defined with the standard

    int main(int argc, char **argv)

I can execute it from a command line prompt, passing any arguments I
like to it.  The program receives the arguments and works correctly.

Apart from telling the IDE that I want to build a console
application, I don't have to do anything special to make it
work.  Whatever magic is done to make it work is part of the C
implementation, and I don't have to know or care how it's done,
or whether it's part of "Windows".  I don't have to write any
special startup code.  If there's a call to GetCommandLine(),
I don't see it, any more than I see the code that invokes main()
when I run a C program on Unix.  It just works.
