Nope.  I complained at the NWE about this, and I recently sent e-mail to  
NeXT about it.  It really bugs the hell out of me that you can't hide the  
File View on startup.  Under 3.0 having the Workspace(File Viewer and  
more?) completely launch on logging in is optional, but that's not the  
solution that I want.

This problem ranks right up there with not having a NeXTstep equivalent to  
X11's DISPLAY environment variable.
