- I have what I believe to be the final word on the Greeting window. But
- before I pass it along I'd like to clear up a couple of things. The window
- I am interested in is the one with the IBM copyright and registration
- information. This window usually displays in the lower right corner or can
- be invoked via ^A (control A) when your desktop is the active window. I long
- ago figured out how to eliminate the Display PostScript copyright window.
-
- So that said, I finally heard from a couple of people at IBM. One suggested
- that we upgrade to a 580 server which would cause the window to come and go
- much more rapidly. But another response from white-shirt set stated that the
- Greeting window is displayed by contract and cannot be eliminated. It is
- odd that you can specify an alternative message and specify a time of 1
- which prevents the message from appearing but not the window. Some contract.
-
- Anyway, I'm going to use this last premise as an excuse to terminate my
- search. There have got to be more important things to pursue. B-)) Thanks
- to all who made suggestions.
