It would even work as a console app, the problem then would only be that
whenever a script accesses the COM object, an ugly console window would
pop up. That's why there's now a second exe which is compiled as a
window app, not a console one.

"SubWCRev.object" is the version independent name of the COM object
which can/should be used by scripts. "SubWCRev.object.1" is the *exact*
object we install - but if we ever add more features to the object we
have to increase the version number, and then all the scripts using
"SubWCRev.object.1" wouldn't work anymore because only
"SubWCRev.object.2" would be available - with "SubWCRev.object" alone
that won't happen, because Windows will automatically use the one which
is available.
