[Pythoncard-users] Disable commandline window for Pythoncard app

[GoWtHaM N. <nar...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I am building my PythonCard application using custom Pytoexe builder. It
runs succesfully and creates a .exe of the application. When I run the
executable, the app launcher along with a windows commandline window and it
lives as long as the application runs. I wondering if this is a default
beheviour or happening when I build it using pytoexe. Can this be disabled
so that just the GUI window pops up when the executable is run i.e double
clicked.

Thanks,
Gowtham N

In PyInstaller there's an option "noconsole", I'm guessing its something
similar in Py2Exe.

I'm still learning this py2exe stuff, but it sounds like your setup
script (setup.py?) is specifying the Python module(s) to build using the
'console' option. Change this to 'windows' to get rid of the
commandline, i.e. instead of

setup(console=['wibble.py'], options={.....

use

setup(windows=['wibble.py'], options={.....

(see <http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/ListOfOptions>)
