stray console window

I think there is a bug that causes a console window to appear on a bound exe in windows, unless i misunderstand how to use the command line switches. There seems to be a discrepancy....
The docs say:
bind [-full_debug] [-list] [-quiet] [-out executable_file] [filename.ex] bindu [-full_debug] [-list] [-quiet] [-out executable_file] [filename.ex] bindw [-full_debug] [-list] [-quiet] [-out executable_file] [-con] [-icon filename.ico] [filename.exw]
but where are these files?
Instead, it seems i have to run
euiw %EUDIR%\source\bind.ex -w32 -full_debug -icon ems.ico ems.ex
to bind my program, which causes a console window to appear.
If i leave out -w32, it fails to bind and gives this message:
<0317>:: couldn't open eubd.exe! Press Enter
Apparently, -w32 is required, yet isn't even mentioned in the docs!? Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug? I have to release this software by tomorrow!
