There is another PD program called CommandReq, that puts up a requestor, and
lets you pick YES or NO as to whether a particular command should be executed.
It's better than ASK, because it has a timeout feature, that will assume YES or
NO, depending on how you invoke it, if you don't select anything within a
certain amount of time that you specify. I use it in my startup sequence a
lot, for instance to decide whether or not CONMAN and FUNCKEY should be used or
not. I give myself 3 seconds to select NO, or else by default, they are
active. Leave me a message if it's not in any DL here, and I'll put together an
ARC file and upload it.
