Summary: pythonw.exe should not flash DOC windows

Initial Comment:
Python version 2.3.

I'm using pythonw (and py2exe) to build a windows 
application.

When new processes are launched, using os.system() or 
os.spawn a DOS windows flashes for a moment and then 
vanishes. It makes the application look funny.

When the same application is run via python (and not 
pythonw) this doesn't happen. New processes don't 
create a flashing DOS window.

It would be nice if pythonw.exe could function similar to 
python.exe, just without the constant DOS window in 
the background.

The same behavior occures when running the program 
via pythonw.exe <fname.py> or when compiling with 
py2exe -w.
