This performs a similar function to *Desktop -file. The main difference is that each task is allowed to start-up fully before the next is started, and a limited degree of multi-tasking is available.

The original reason for this program was to enable something more interesting than a blank grey screen to be shown while a lengthy start-up sequence is performed. Many other facilities were subsequently added, including a status window and a percentage completed display.
Compatibility: Requires RISC OS 3.1 or later.
