"Loading.." feature

Hi guys.

I have a question about the load time of squeak.

The first run time is large. Is possible thath the VM shows a "Loading Squeak!!"?? And bette if is possible a custom message....

Other question is...is possible change the icon and name of the Squeak Window?

Thanks

Re: "Loading.." feature

Have you tryed to drop the image onto the squeak.exe (windows) or start the programm on the command-line with the image-name as the first argument? The starting behavior is much faster.

regards,

Frank

If you drag & drop the image file on top of the VM, the load time is much
faster.

Ok, i will try. And can you use the image as parameter for squeak.exe?

But, is possible this message?

What I normally do is put the VM and associated files under "c:\Program
Files\Squeak\", and then associate .image with that executable. Then you
can just double-click the image, and everyone's happy...

The files (for the Squeak directory) are:

Squeak.exe
SqueakFFIPrims.dll
Squeak.ini
SqueakV3.sources

Hello Lord,

LZ> And, about the icon and window text Squeak? I don't like de squeak logo sorry :S

use any old resource editor and we had a discussion with more clever
replies on the topic here some time ago.

Gmane might help.
