run the exe in background

Hello,
it's possible to run the program in the background?
Thank you.
Sadly not easily, I have yet to find a way to make the tool run flawlessly in the background.
For now, there is a "dirty" workaround using pythonw and a Batch script (credits to @mkierc):
batch-background.zip
Place those two files into the fluxee folder, use start.bat to run the script and close the cmd window. Use stop.bat when you want to terminate the background process.
Keep in mind that this will not show any errors, if something doesn't work check the stderr.txt that the script creates.
After a second glance over this issue: running bottle.py, a substancial part of this script, is simply not possible with pythonw. Hence this is not possible, sadly.
