Could I respectfully suggest:
(a) the startup delay (in seconds) is included as a setting in
local.ini and would default to zero, except for NTPrime and Prime95
when "run as service" is set, when the default would be 60 seconds;
(b) a command-line switch is provided which would cause the startup
delay to be omitted, even if set in local.ini.
