To start PMX automatically when TCP/IP is started, select the Autostart tab, select PMX in the Autostarted Services list box, and check the Autostart Service box under Autostart Options.
If you choose to start PMX in an OS/2 window foreground session, you can check the Minimized box to minimize the OS/2 window.
The PMX server enables you to display and control X Window System client application programs in OS/2 windowed sessions. Using OS/2 Presentation Manager (PM) as the X Window System manager enables OS/2 PM windowed applications and X Window System client applications to share the same screen.
If you choose to automatically start PMX, you can also specify PMX parameters in the Parameters field.
Uncheck the Autostart Service check box to disable the automatic starting of PMX when TCP/IP is started.
If you choose to automatically start PMX, TCP/IP can also process command parameters when specified from the Autostart tab.
Important Note: When starting PMX automatically, the -nocopyright PMX parameter is selected by default. All other PMX parameters are not selected to start by default. This is because entering a PMX command line parameter in the Parameter field will override any corresponding setting made in the PMX Configuration Notebook. As a result, you will not be able to use the PMX Configuration Notebook to change these corresponding parameters. In addition, the PMX parameters available to you vary with the version of PMX you are running. Therefore the preferred method of configuring PMX is the PMX Configuration Notebook, which is available from the PMX command menu. A few command line parameters do not have equivalent settings in the PMX Configuration Notebook. If you need to use any command line parameters, first view the online PMX help to determine the valid parameters for your version of PMX. Then use the PMX Configuration Notebook to specify or change parameters.
If you choose to start PMX in a minimized foreground session, the -iconify PMX parameter is selected by default.
