- Hello --
-
- I've recently gotten into using ToolsManager 2.1 and have a question. Is this
- utility a "memory hog?" I ask this because it seems to me that when I quit
- programs which I've launched from my TM dock, they don't free up as much
- memory as they do when I launch them from a "left out" WB icon.
-
- Other than that, I really like this utility. :^)
-
- Another question: Can you get a TM dock button assigned to a CLI program to
- open a shell window (I'm running WB 3.0)? I have a button assigned to my
- AmiTCP startup script, called PPPOn, but I need at a certain point in the
- script to input my password. The dock button runs the program just fine, but
- without a shell window or any way to enter my password, the dock's useless.
- (PPPOff, which opens a shell output window, works fine, though.)
-
- Thanks for any hints.
