I know. Yet another step.
When I open almost any other application _via_ command-line, it opens in
its own window *and* the original CLI window remains open, pushed back
"below" the application's window.
When I close the application (its window disappears), my original CLI
window is exactly where I left it, exactly *as* I left it.
I do this, and see this, all the time with E.exe, EPM.exe, PMView.exe,
Mozilla.exe, Firefox.exe, etc ad infinitum.
John had tweaked for me, or told me how, to make one of the older
versions behave that way.
That's the way I wish the present WU-monitor behaved. On my machine, my
set-up, it doesn't. If it's not possible with this version, oh well,
c'est la vie.
