Is it possible to make a program run with being able to see it? If so, how?

On windows, use exw.exe rather than ex.exe or exwc.exe, (ie your
program should end in .exw) and avoid things which require a console
(?x, puts(1,x), getc(0) etc).
The following program runs for ten seconds and is invisible apart from
showing up on the task list (Ctrl Alt Del) for ten seconds:
include misc.e
sleep(10)


If it is a proper windows program you have built with win32lib, then
you can start it minimised on the taskbar, eg:
include win32lib.ew
constant main = create(Window,"Test",0,100,100,100,100,0)
WinMain(main,Minimized)

Alternatively you can position the window off-screen. What exactly are
you trying to do?

Pete

thanks. i'm trying to make a scheduler that will stay hidden until it
needs to remind you of something.
