Hi, Tony!

I think it is still possible to start gnubg with the -t option on the
dos prompt.

The reason why I compile a gnubg-no-gui.exe is that I think there should
be a build that's not depending on the gtk dlls.

I'm acctually thinking of stripping down the no-gui.exe such that it can
be a fully stand alone executable, only depending on gnubg.wd. That means
taking away the i18n and gdbm support for this executable. Is this smart?
