It's not really a "command prompt" window, as there is not command interpreter (cmd.exe) there, it's just Evolution's windows. The correct term is console window. But at least you didn't call it a "DOS box"... This is because the evolution executables are marked as "console applications" and not "gui applications". (This is just a field in the executable header, it has no effect on whether the program can have a gui or not.) That the console window appears is a completely trivial minor point from a developer point of view, and extremely easy to get rid of when building Evolution, just a -mwindows switch is needed, or even afterwards if one has the suitable tool editbin.exe. To end-users the console window seems odd, of course. The main reason why Evolution still is by default built on Windows as a console application (i.e. which opens a console window is because it makes it easier to see error messages and warnings. But yeah, the default really should be changed. --tml _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
