It isn't the OP choosing, it's his client. Now, I dislike aspects of Windows as much as anybody, but even I can see that dictating which OS your client is allowed to use if they want to run your program is sometimes not a viable option. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Cosmo I don't really use Windows any more, so I might be off the mark, but I think that you need to look into using pythonw.exe instead of python.exe. Solving your problem might be as easy as changing the name of your file from foo.py to foo.pyw. Jason -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Somebody can help? Thanks! Cosmo In Windows, the executable file statically determines whether a console is created. There are two executables shipped with Python, python.exe and pythonw.exe. You want to use the latter. The real question is how to cause Windows to run that rather than python.exe. Answer depends on how your use is launching his program. If he's starting from a shortcut, change the name of the executable on the shortcut. If he's starting by double-clicking on the script name, change the extension of the script from .py to .pyw You mention that you're shipping only .pyc files. If that's the case, add one more, a .pyw that imports your main script. Of course, that may mean changing that script a little so it works as a module.
