Comment (by cnielsen):

 Replying to [ticket:559 hamish]:
 > ps- is there a way to automatically minimize the DOS box when launching
 GRASS? it just sort of sits there idle.

 Yes this can be done in the creation of the shortcut (*.lnk) files.

 {{{SW_SHOWMINIMIZED}}} will start it minimized

 {{{SH_HIDE}}} should (I haven't tested it yet) start it but run it in the
 background (ie. hide it completely). Although there would be no extra
 window, it may hide error messages like the one that says wxdigit isn't
 working.

 Which option should I implement?
