That's the point of it ;-)
Seems I need to explain my usage pattern ...
I startup squeak, switch between different projects to work on
different, well projects. Everywhere I have a Wiki open and use it as a
not pad. Sometimes I close it, or it get's obscured by other windows.
At some time I "save and quit".
On the next startup I'm in whatever prohject I last was in, the wiki
pops up and shows me whatever page I edited last, as to get me going
fast. If I had it closed, I get the page which has the overview of what
I find interesting at the moment.
Of course I hate windows popping up on me *while I work*, but at startup
time I find a - carefully chosen - set of automatic information quite handy.
Kind regards,
Ingo
