Executable python program - disable cmd line?

Question

I have a simple GUI python 2.7 app developed with wxpython. I don't want it to show the cmd line. I renamed the file to *.pyw and when I open it as a python script it works ok (no cmd line). But when I compile it via py2exe, the executable file shows the cmd line anyways. Is there any way to get around this?

Answer 1

You probably want to use window instead of console in your setup script.

from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe

setup(window=['hello.py'])

Answer 2

OK, sorry for the trouble, a bit more research and I found the answer here:

Anyways thank you for your time.
