If you don't want your .py Python script to launch a console window, rename
it to .pyw and it will get launched by pythonw instead of python and the
console window won't show up. For example, in my local copies, I renamed
worldclock and searchexplorer to:

  worldclock.pyw
  searchexplorer.pyw

No changes to the .rsrc.py file. Basically, once the debugging is done, if
your app doesn't use the console for output, then renaming to .pyw is
usually a good thing.
