 in WXGUI?

 GUI? What GUI? ;)

 We should consider re-factoring the start-up script into separate scripts
 for the GUI and command line.

 If the script is run with pythonw.exe (rather than python.exe), the user
 need never see a console window. However, this does require that the GUI
 never writes to stdout/stderr, and that it ensures that those streams are
 redirected for any child processes which might do so.
