Help file for KillScreen.
=========================
Got tired of that startup screen the Wimp does whenever you enter the
desktop? Well I did and so I put together this small ( about 680 bytes)
module that prevents that screen from appearing. To add into the bargain it
optionally runs an OSCLI command when this event occurs to allow you to
patch in your own startup screen, animation, pizza server, mandlebrot
drawer...
It must be run before your Wimp has started for that session so is best
placed in !Boot files before any *Desktop -file commands get called. It is
very un-useful in DeskBoot files as the Wimp is already active when these
get run. It seems that application memory has been claimed by the Wimp at
this stage so your command can't run an application task. However I suspect
utilities and commands embeded in other modules will be just fine. Full on
line help is provided for the simple interface it has.
This program is Freeware. It may be freely copied, distributed and
otherwise used in any non-commercial, non-profitable code. If it gets into
somebodies application a mention would be nice.
