Hmm... This may not do you any good at all. The command line redirection is
implemented by CMD.EXE. If you run CMD.EXE, it's going to open a console
window. But the whole point of the exercise was to avoid a console window!

What about redirecting stderr and stdout in Python code? Something like this
(untested but maybe close):

class devnull:
    def write( self, str ):
        pass

import sys
sys.stdout = devnull()
sys.stderr = devnull()

import moin
# do you need to call something here?
