Hmm.. how do I go about making a program not show up on the task bar? As I've
said before... my Windows programming experience is somehwat lacking :(

Actually though, there's no need for a separate server program now, since the
Windows console port runs quickly enough regardless of how many users are in
the game.

But I would still like to have a way to make the program not clutter the task
bar, possibly as a command-line option for BBS's that are centered around MUDs
and hence would often have many copies of the door open at once.

So if ya know how to make a C++ Win32 Console program not show up on the
taskbar, please let me know :)
