My testing show that having a "taskbar=True" in the options.py results in the splash screen and the taskbar icon However using 'web2py_no_console.exe -t -L options.py ' results in not having the splash screen but also not the taskbar icon as well. Task Manager shows the exe actually running in the background.
With my limited understanding of the web2py source it looks like its only being called from web2py/gluon/widget.py from 273-302 and I'm not seeing anything the would disable it because of using the command line versus the options.py file. Not sure where to go with this. On a seperate note are there any instructions/guides on how to use py2exe with the web2py source? Doesn't seem like 'python setup_exe.py py2exe' works out of the box.
