=head1 NAME
exetype - Change executable subsystem type between "Console" and "Windows"
=head1 SYNOPSIS
C:\perl\bin> copy perl.exe guiperl.exe
C:\perl\bin> exetype guiperl.exe windows
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This program edits an executable file to indicate which subsystem the
operating system must invoke for execution.
You can specify any of the following subsystems:
=over
=item CONSOLE
The CONSOLE subsystem handles a Win32 character-mode application that
use a console supplied by the operating system.
=item WINDOWS
The WINDOWS subsystem handles an application that does not require a
console and creates its own windows, if required.
