Re: [Wrapper-user] Hiding console window when running wrapper in console mode

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Vince,
    Unfortunately, the Wrapper does not currently support running the 
Wrapper without a
console.  It will require a different binary to do so.  I have on my to 
do list to modify the
Windows version to include a wrapperw.exe as well as the current 
wrapper.exe.  But it
is going to be in a future release.

    The best I can do right now is the following:
start /min wrapper.exe -c ..\conf\wrapper.conf

    This will open the Wrapper console iconized.  The icon will be that 
of the Wrapper
rather than the standard console icon.

Cheers,
Leif
