I posted the following request some two months ago but didn't get a response.
If someone could help, *please* do ...

Anyone know how to run Smalltalk without it opening a window or taking over
the display ?

I need to run it as a server, in a system of co-operating knowledge bases.
It needs to run on a machine without the user of the machine being aware of it.

Running it in a small window or reducing it to an icon is not acceptable.

BTW, I'm using ParcPlace ST ver 2.3, on an Apollo 3500, running SR9.7, BSD 4.2.
