Continuing this thread, I have found an old thread from 8 years ago:
https://polyml.inf.ed.ac.narkive.com/4xmYIUbU/is-there-a-windows-build-that-...
It talks about building a standalone version of Poly/ML on Windows.
There you wrote:
The alternative is to create a native Windows application. That can be done using either Windows Visual Studio or Msys/Mingw.
The Poly/ML source distribution includes "projects" and a "solution" for Visual Studio and you can use the free "community" edition to build Poly/ML. You will need to change the linker "subsystem" option from "Windows" to "Console" but otherwise it's fairly straightforward.

Does this work on Visual Studio Code?

On Windows the Poly/ML executable creates a GUI window if it hasn't been given an output stream. If you redirect the output to a file or a pipe it won't create the window.
Hope that helps. David

Hi there,
it is possible to create a standalone script on Unices:
#!/home/user/polyml-5.9/bin/poly --script
print "Hello World!\n"
But the Windows executable creates a window. Is it possible to compile a Poly/ML read-eval-print loop that I could start in a cmd window? My goal would be to write standalone scripts for Windows.
