GUI versions don't seem to have any GUI when run #44

Closed 0x5c closed 3 years ago

The GUI releases have no GUI when run, and silently exit. When run through the command line, they behave like the no GUI versions.

Correct - the difference between the GUI and non GUI version is just the Win32 subsystem. The non GUI binary will open a terminal if you double click, whilst the GUI one will not however the non GUI binary will not block if run from the CLI. This is expected behaviour.

Ah, I see It should probably be specified in the docs, and/or be renamed to "no console" or similar

Yeah, that makes sense, I can add it to the readme.
