+=item Win32::SetChildShowWindow(SHOWWINDOW)
+
+[CORE] Sets the I<ShowMode> of child processes started by system().
+By default system() will create a new console window for child
+processes if Perl itself is not running from a console. Calling
+SetChildShowWindow(0) will make these new console windows invisible.
+Calling SetChildShowWindow() without arguments reverts system() to the
+default behavior.  The return value of SetChildShowWindow() is the
+previous setting or C<undef>.

+[EXT] The following symbolic constants for SHOWWINDOW are available

+SW_SHOWMINIMIZED, SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED and SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE.
