Execute a console program without showing a window #177

As mentioned in https://github.com/end2endzone/ShellAnything/issues/108 I consider to be an important feature for ShellAnything to be able to run console programs without showing a terminal window.

As reference, KuShellExt has the console="false" option for this purpose.

For example, these context menus use ImageMagick commands to transform images, without showing a console:

This feature is now supported. If you would like to try the feature before the official release, use the latest nightly-builds on AppVeyor.

@end2endzone Understood, thank you..

I will try the update come November, as I'm currently pressured to handle a legal issue that should finalize this month.

If all goes well I'll start migrating to ShellAnything, but I do expect it'll take me a while 'cause I'm currently using KuShellExt extensively. I'll probably migrate in batches, or maybe all at once if I can.

Best regards!
