>> pageant starts, but doesn't return control to my wrapper;

Glenn Linderman gave this wisdom:

> augment $pageant_cmd as
> my $pageant_cmd = qq#start "pageant" pageant
$the->{keypath}/$the->{private_key}#;

That fixes the 'return control' issue, thank you very much, Glenn!

Now another problem has surfaced.

Previously, I'd run the wrapper, pageant hung, CTRL-C, rerun wrapper,
works.
Then I could rerun the wrapper as many times as I wanted with no hangs.
pageant continued to run in system tray, so key was already loaded. He
didn't complain that the key was already loaded, he just silently did his
thing
each time.

But now, when I rerun the wrapper when pageant is already running, pageant
gives
me a popup, saying: "Couldn't load this key (unable to open file)"
This is really an unhelpful message in this case. Putty help doc says it
means
the key is wrong type; not true.

QUESTION: Is there a way -- from the wrapper -- to suppress a popup issued
by
another application?
