Yes.

Also another tip, if you meet the same with a binary distribution and yo=
u  =

do not have the source or don't want to recompile (because too complex) =
:  =

open the binary in an hexadecimal editor, go to 16#3C#, get the two byte=
s  =

words located there, add 16#5C# to that two bytes word, and go to that  =

address (the one resulting from the sum). There, you will see a two byte=
s  =

words which is probably set to 1. Set it to 3 (and save the binary file)=
,  =

then no more console will be opened at the application startup.

Note: some times, this console may display relevant informations about  =

what's going on, especially at startup. If the application is not well  =

tested or is a kind of beta or alpha, it's better to have a console and =
 =

not to get ride of it.
