<br>
I've developed a game in Squeak, mainly used on windows.<br>
Due to some bug in the recent windows vm [1] I needed to fall back to an old VM which does not provide a splash screen at the beginning.<br>
As a consequence children playing this game might start the vm more than one time -- not getting any feedback if it has already started -- which leads to some nasty consequences.<br>
<br>
So: I guess I miss something obvious, but can someone point me to an easy way to ensure only a single squeak instance on windows?<br>
I guess asking some registry or elsewhere for running (squeak) processes might help, any pointers in this direction?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
Markus<br>
