what does -mwindows mean?

[wei]

Below is what I found in the makefile dev-cpp auto-generated:

LIBS =  -L"F:/Dev-Cpp/lib" -mwindows ../../lib/libcomctl32.a 

What does -mwindows mean?I guess it means creating a windows application,but I
can't find it in gcc's documents.It's an extension of mingw-gcc?
