Hi Gunnar,
thx for your reply. I'm not fully sure if I understand (sorry for that).
What does "active" mean in this context?
a) Active = Application is already loaded in memory
b) Active = The application window has the current OS focus.
In case of a) ... that is what I'm looking for. The installer would put
the application into the
repective Auto-start location (Startup for Windows, the login script for
OS/X and Linux) and we are good to go
Thx for helping and have a great day!
:-) stw
