Forking in windows. Possible?

[dakman at gmail.com]

I know under mac/*nix it's possible to fork the proccess to the
background and exit the parent process. I have used this on a couple of
my projects, but right now I am working on a project that will be
required to run in the background, I have considered using the .pyw
extension on my files, but there will be parts of the program that will
be required to show the console. So if anyone has an ideas...

-Thanks
