But if I double-click the .exe file, I get a command window that hangs around (but doesn't appear to do anything, fortunately) until the program terminates. How can I avoid this command window?

With gtk2hs, using "-optl-mwindows" as a command line option for GHC lets me get rid of this window. Perhaps it will do the same for wxHaskell?

Yes, that did the trick! Thanks a lot!

But now I've discovered that using "-optl-mwindows" creates a program that doesn't work when invoked from a command line. Is there any way to create a program that can work when invoked either from a command line or through double-clicking? Dean
