Hide console window with Tkinter and cx_Freeze

Question

I am using cx_freeze to freeze a tkinter app. When I run the exe I get a wonderfully USELESS console window along with my tkinter GUI.

I would like to remove

I remember reading somewhere that on Windows if you specify your file extension as .pyw, it will launch with pythonw.exe (without a console window). Does that work for you?
