I created a cross-platform app using gtk-d. Everything works fine but when I run it from Windows, a console window is opened. How can I tell Windows that it's a GUI application so that a console is not opened (keeping in mind that this app also needs to be compiled on Linux and Mac)?

Assuming that you use dub, add this to your dub.json

"lflags-windows" : ["/SUBSYSTEM:windows,6.00", "/ENTRY:mainCRTStartup"]
