gtk+ in Windows with VC6

[kelch act org]

     Hi all,
     
     I have successfully installed and configured GTK+ for Win32 and have 
     it working.  Only thing aggravating is the insistence on opening a 
     console window along with the application window.  I am using VC6, and 
     setting up a workspace as a Win32 console application, as otherwise it 
     tries to find a WinMain in my code to begin execution, and the link 
     fails.  Is there some way to do this without the console window, or to 
     cause it to open minimized?  I suspect some kind of command line use 
     of VC6, but if possible I'd like to stay in the IDE.
