Well, I actually went to the `initialization' group, but did not associate "inhibit startup message" (and the message is later spelled out as text in the group) with the fancy splash screen. Call me stupid, but it would be my bet that enough coidiots may be found as to make it worthwhile making this more explicit. Maybe the doc for inhibit startup message should be the point explaining this? If it does, then replicating the option in the fancy splash screen group might look less out of kilter. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
