- 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.
