Running a Python program thru a Windows shortcut

[andrew cooke]

iirc you drag a copy of the MSDOS icon to your desktop and then edit the
properties (right click) so that it runs the program.  somehwre there's an
option that says don't open an actual window, i think.  maybe that's the
difficult bit :o)
