You need to get OCaml Win32 API from here :
http://www.speakeasy.org/~hchomsky/ocaml-win32.html
And then a simple call to free_console() will remove the console.
One other way is to hack the exe in order to change its mode from "console
application" to "win32 application". Maybe an ocaml linker option would be
nice to do that.
