Sheesh!

Create the window in your startup script, then issue the "display" command 
to switch to it, launch the program & then use the display command again 
to switch back to the original bootup screen. 

There is a way I believe where one can use the shell redirects, but the 
exact syntax for that I'd have to go look up, and I'm both lazy, old & the 
L2 books are in the basement with my coco3.
