-
- First off, you don't hack your startup-sequence. You modify user-startup.
-
- Secondly, the rx activator will automatically run RexxMast for you if it
- hasn't been run already (although this doesn't solve the problem of programs
- starting rexx macros directly -- almost anything that launches rexx scripts
- will do this internally so they can get the return codes, etc).
-
- Third, there's no need to modify the user-startup anyway since you can simply
- drag RexxMast into WBStartup.
