[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41074] MinGW: avoid showing terminal window while GUI is loading

[Rik]

Update of bug #41074 (project octave):

                  Status:             In Progress => Patch Submitted

Follow-up Comment #8:

The Octave shortcuts no longer run the executable files directly.  Instead
they run octave.bat with the --no-gui or force-gui option.  I was able to get
rid of the extra terminal window when running the GUI by editing octave.bat to
throw the /B option to start.


start /B octave-gui.exe %*


I'm attaching a patch for the MXE repository.  Can someone else test and see
if it works for them?  I only have a crappy Windows XP VM for testing and it
is often different than a Win7 or Win8 machine.
