- Hi,
-
- I just installed IBM TCP/IP on my machine. TCP/IP consists of a lot of
- server processes (daemons) by its nature. Every one of these daemons, which
- only run in the background and never need any interaction, gets an icon
- on the OS/2 desktop.
-
- So with 10 daemons running on a 14" screen there is not much desktop space
- left for real apps.
-
- So is there any way to start a process without a visible icon ?
-
-
- Thanks for any info, Ernst.
