>a) Go in <kylix>/source/rtl/sys directory and change SysInit.pas initialize
>clause
>b) Run "make" from <kylix>/source/rtl directory.
>c) Now you have baseclx_user.so in your <kylix>/bin and dcu's in
><kylix>/units (original ones are still in <kylix>/lib
>d) Make sure that you have <kylix>/units listed before <kylix>/lib in your
>library path. That will do for standalone applications. For applications
>with packages use baseclx_user instead baseclx (and delete visualclx) in
>list of used packages.
>e) Compile and enjoy your nag-free application
>
>2) GUI application popups nasty little window on start. The code is located
>in QOpenBanner.pas file, but don't try do change it ! There is some dirty
>compiler magic used to prevent that.
>
>So, how to get rid of it?
>
>a) Run your application with "-ns" command-line switch. That will disable
>the nag screen to popup.
>b) You can tweak RTL in appropriate place (for example SysInit.pas in
>initialization section) to inject the "-ns" parameter. I hope you'll share
>it with others :)
