VBRANDT@DBNUAMA1.BITNET (10/28/89)
Hello all, I remember that some months (or even years ago) there were some postings about how to detect whether a program was invoked from the desktop or from a shell (or any other program, for that matter). Could someone please either tell me how he/she does it, or point me to the Info-Atari16 digest where the original postings appeared? (Yes, I have saved ALL digests -- 20 MB of text :-) I'd like to write a C or assembler function that I can use to make life for desktop users easier, such as: if Desktop() Cconin(); u Any and all hellp is, as always, most welcome. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bitnet: VBRANDT@DBNUAMA1 (will go away late '89) Volker A.
