     EXETYPE NT

Then `dmd my.d no_console.def` to hide console.

But how do I realize it with dub.sdl ? Adding no_console.def to
"sourceFiles", doesn't help.

you can do that:

```json
"lflags-windows": [
     "/SUBSYSTEM:windows",
],
```

dub is too dumb, i think "sourceFiles" only accept .d

Thats not true at all, its aware of what is a linker file and passes 
that off to the linker automatically:

This should work with .def, if it doesn't there is a bug and needs 
reporting.
