:Yep. In the process structure there is a field called pr_ConsoleTask. If it
:is set to -1 (I think) this will inhibit DOS requesters appearing for that
:process.
:
:     struct Process *p;
:
:     p = (struct Process *) FindTask (0);
:     p->pr_ConsoleTask = (APTR) -1;
	
	Uh, that's a nice easy way to crash your machine ...  it is actually
proc->pr_WindowPtr .  Essentially, you should do this:

    APTR Save;

    Save = p->pr_WindowPtr;
    p->pr_WindowPtr = (APTR)-1L;

    (do stuff that you don't want reuqesters for here)

    p->pr_WindowPtr = Save;
