Simple question:  I have written a clock/memory monitor thingy that opens 
a small window in the corner and sits there forever.  I can AmigaDOS RUN 
it and everything works fine, but I'd like to detach it from a CLI ala 
DMouse.  I assumed you could do this with LoadSeg() and CreateProc(), and
these two functions work (ie. they return valid), but my clock never appears.
Why not?  Xoper shows the process WAITING.

I'm using Benchmark Modula, BTW.  Does it have something to do with the 
startup code of the load module?
