How can I run a py2exe program in windows without the terminal?

Question

Could someone explain to me how can I run my py2exe program, a console program, without the terminal on Windows?

I'm trying to make a program that re-sizes windows and it supposed to start with windows, so I want it hide out but still running...

Answer 1

Use the setup() function like this:

setup(windows=['myfile.py'])

See the list of options for setup().

Answer 2

Not really understand your requirement, but you can try start /MIN. type start /? on the command line to see its help page.

Answer 3

Would you consider compiling it into an EXE (using py2exe or some such) and adding it to your list of startup programs?

Answer 4

Sounds like what you want is for your script to run as a Windows Service instead of a Windows program. Something like this tutorial might be helpful:
