New submission from Mark Summerfield:

The excellent py.exe launcher on Windows always uses a python.exe interpreter 
(although another issue suggests it will use pythonw.exe when the python file 
has a .pyw suffix which is good).

However, if one wanted to provide a .bat file like this:

@echo off
pushd %~dp0
py -3 MyGuiApp.pyw %*
popd

python.exe would be used rather than pythonw.exe.

My suggestion is to add a -w and/or --win(dows) flag which forces the use of 
pythonw.exe.
