My $0.02:

First I think that the suggestion above won't work. If you have
progman minimized, and issue a run progman (I did this through usher),
progman stays iconized. (A second copy does not run.)

One of my machines is set up with usher as the shell, and has progman
in the run line. This has the advantage of getting windows to start up
with progman as a window. The drawback is that on quitting windows,
the new things in progman are not saved (though I am not 100% sure of
this.) I suppose that the same effect would be obtained by making
winfile the shell, and setting run= to include progman.
