Re: Very Newbie question: Xindice start question on WinXP

In my understanding a 'service' in Windows is a program that is started at
boot and that does NOT have a console or any associated window with it.

This is pretty easy though :) Try:
start startup.bat
or try typing (under cmd)
start /?
and you'll see how wonderful your Windows command processor is :)

This doesn't start a service in Unix either, only a background process
which ignores a particular signal.
Try the above thing with start, I think you'll like it.
