[wxPython] Gtting rid of the "**!*" DOS box

Interesting, I wasn't aware of the .pyw extension.

Unfortunately, it doesent help me, as I am writing for multiple platforms
(UNIX, Windows), and
changing extensions just for windows would be problematic.

The solution suggested by Greg Landrum: associating .py with pythonw works
best for
me. My experience is that doing it that way with python and wxWindows allows
me to
develop a single application tht runs on all platforms without change. After
years of developing
in 'c' and managing different code bases for different platforms, thats
cool!

On Windows you only need to change the ext of your file
>from *.py to *.pyw (pyw files are asociated with pythonw.exe
that not display a DOS box)
