It is possible to make wxCLIPS load your application and start it up without the development window appearing. You need to define a function called app-on-init, which takes no arguments but must return the identifier of the top-level frame.
Now start your application as follows:
wxclips -clips load.clp -startThe file after the -clips switch is 'batched', which can be slow for a large file. Make the file small, with one or more calls to load definition files, followed by any function calls necessary (for example to register event handlers).
The -start switch tells wxCLIPS to call the function app-on-init, and use the returned frame identifier as the top level window. The development window will not be displayed.
