sticky splash screen

2003-08-23 Thread Ochrid

Hello all,

The splash screen that show up at the start of TB
is quite nice, but not quite nice enough to stay
there for as long as it does ;-)

Is there anyway to cut it short?

Add /NOLOGO to the command line that loads The Bat!  For example:
C:\Program Files\The Bat!\thebat.exe /NOLOGO

This works for v1 and, I assume, for v2.

Click it and it flies away. (I didn't know that until now, but I
thought I'd give it a try. This is a scary thought, but I'm beginning
to think like a TB programmer: If you think the program should do
something, it probably does; you just have to find it.) I usually just
press Alt-F2 and TB starts checking for mail while the splash screen
is still there.

That worked for me too, but not anymore.
I am now using beta 2.0.

Yes, it does. I first thought it didn't, but that
was because I had attached the short cut to the
Menu Start (using Win XP). With a fresh short cut
the 'nologo' it works.

However, now that I know the rather nice screen
can be clicked away quickly,  I'll leave in place.

Thank you all for your help.
