I was recently wondering the same thing myself. My research indicates
that its not possible to have a single Windows application that can run
in both console and GUI ("Windows") modes.

Here are 2 links that explain this in more detail.

Since we're talking MS Windows here, see:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682528(VS.85).aspx

You can access the AllocConsole and related functions with the win32 module:
  win32console

This module is part of the win32 extensions, and also part of 
ActivePython distribution.

I can't think of an easy way to achieve the first approach - I've
always taken the second approach. The advanced example included with
py2exe has an example of how to do this. Look at all the occurrences
of test_wx in the following link to see all the pieces involved:

http://py2exe.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/py2exe/trunk/py2exe/py2exe/samples/advanced/setup.py?view=markup

This uses an alternate form of the "windows" and "console" arguments
where each target is an object with specially named member variables
rather than a string that names the .py file (this string is one of
the member variables). This is necessary so you can give different
names to the console version and the windows version.
