Yes, there is a couple different things you can do.
Most of this is described in the release notes under the install
section.
The LOGO.EXE has the -l switch (load).
You can create new icons of LOGO.EXE with different arguments
to the -l switch (i.e. logo.exe -l myprog.lgo in the properties
of the Icon). Under Win95 you can also register the .LGO extension
with the program LOGO.EXE -l such that when you click on .LGO files
and they will be automatically loaded (see release notes on how to do
this).
Just because they are automatically loaded does not mean they
will be automatically be run.
To automatically run (when loaded) you need to use the special
command called STARTUP.
This is extracted from online help STARTUP command.
to myprog
print "Hello
end
make "startup [myprog]
save "myprog.lg
erall
load "myprog.lg
<Hello>
You can Iconify the commander with the ICON command.
This is extracted from online help ICON command.
icon "Commander
unicon "Commander
You actually have the power to do much more through the
DLL commands but that would beyond the scope of this forum.
But here is and example taken from the examples directory
Examples\Windows\DLL16.LGO.
dllload "user.exe
; Get Window Handle to Main Window
make "hwnd dllcall [w FindWindow l 0 s [MswLogo Screen]]
; Now Resize it
make "status dllcall (list "w "MoveWindow "w :hwnd "w "0 "w "0 "w "100
"w "100 "w "1)
dllfree
end
I wrote a HIDECOMMANDER and SHOWCOMMANDER this way once for
someone but do have the code around anymore.
Hope this helps.
