Does Visual Studio include some kind of console emulator?

I'm just starting with Visual Studio 2010, and I'm not even sure if this is the right question to ask. Let me explain what I'm trying to do:

Right now, when developing console applications, I compile/debug, switch to my command prompt, navigate to where the *.exe got dumped and run it--only to find that my output is mising a \t or \n somewhere--then I need to go back, fix, re-compile, etc., etc.

I'd like to be able to do a compile-on-the-fly-and-run-in-a-window type of thing without having to leave Visual Studio. Maybe a popup launched from VS? Maybe a pane in the interface for the command prompt? Does anything like this exist?

you can just hit F5 and it will run... might need to include

Console.Readline() 

so the window does not close too quickly.
