I made the test for "_SHELLHIDE" function, and discovered now there is no such thing as "_SHELLDONTWAIT". Notice the failed attempt to compile with "_SHELLDONTWAIT".
Notice that even with "_SHELLHIDE" a dummy console window is shown. But this might be on my 10-year-old laptop and it would help if I had the latest QB64PE. (It's proof that I am doing almost nothing on Windows since the beginning of summer, too busy Linux distro-hopping LOL.) In order to get the user program to display the return value of "x", I closed NPPP, then opened it again to show the source code.
