Line 1: {{draft task}}Some languages (like ~~gambas~~Gambas and ~~visual~~Visual ~~basic~~Basic) support two startup modes. Applications written in these languages start with an open window that waits for events, and it is necessary to do some ~~jiggerypokery~~trickery to cause a main procedure to run instead. Data driven or event driven languages may also require similar trickery to force a startup procedure to run. The task is to demonstrate the steps involved in causing the application to run a main procedure, rather than an event driven window at startup.
