- Actually, after installation of 2.1 I started to do this, but I was
- still annoyed by the status window that popped up. (I prefer to have
- no windows show up on my Workbench, unless there is an error.
- Otherwise, it has similarities to an Enforcer hit.)
-
- Here's an enchancement request for Commodore's Workbench Team:
-
- Allow Rexxmast to use the standard tootype: WINDOW=NIL:.
-
- Granted that this will not allow the execution of REXX scripts very
- early in the startup, but it will work for the majority of users who
- use REXX for applications, but not for special functions during
- startup.
