#75588 — How to turn off Python's event log window in the background?

Hi,

whenever I run the Leo editor (a Python application) from Windows (8.1), there is always an event log window in the background. I want to turn it off.

It was suggested to me on another forum that I use pythonw.exe instead of python.exe to prevent the window from being displayed, but I don't know how to do this, because it is all automatic: I just click on the .py file, and the python interpreter is automatically loaded.

Could someone please tell me how to disable the event log window?

Thanks

Assuming you have your installation set up in the normal way, renaming
your .py file to .pyw will have it run with pythonw.exe instead of
python.exe. That should do what you want.

Have fun!
