    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var client = new FacebookClient();
            dynamic me = client.Get("totten");

To keep the command-line open so you can read the output, add the following after the Console.Writeline line

Console.Readline();

Then when you run it, the output will display, and wait for you to press enter - which will allows the program to continue and exit/quit.

Also, in short, yes you should be able to create the app as a complete command-line application without issue.

Your question doesn't have much to do with Windows 7.

You sample works fine. You just don't have any line writting to the console. Try :

var client = new FacebookClient();
var me = client.Get("totten");

Console.WriteLine(me);
