WBStartup in OS3.9...

th4t1guy · 26 August 2003, 04:52

Running on WinUAE 0.8.22 R7
Amiga OS 3.9

Whenever I have a commodity like ClickToFront or Blanker in the WBstartup folder, while Workbench is loading, I get the message "Program 'ClickToFront' has not yet returned. Do You want to wait some more?"

If I click OK, it waits and pops up the same message again. If I select cancel, Workbench loads as normal, and the program seems to be loaded fine.

Is there anything I can do to get rid of this annoying message?

Add the DONOTWAIT tooltype and you shouldn't get the error.

Gotta say that it works the same for previous OS versions (at least starting at 2.0)

well, you could try 'donotwait' but if the program is in wbstartup there should just be a button you can click in the icon info window... can't remember exactly what it called now though

This button does nothing other than add or remove the DONOTWAIT tooltype.

Erm, thats the point, if you manually add 'DONOTWAIT' to an icon in the wbstartup drawer then look at the icon again 'DONOTWAIT' won't be there, so always check/use the button with 3.9....
