Let me correct this.  Here's what I get for all four combinations:

-task -txt Ego+Morio Window
  no   no    no        yes
  no   yes   no        yes
  yes  no    yes       no
  yes  yes   yes       no

My apologies for last night's wrong posting.  The fact that I
get /either/ Ego+Morio /or/ an open window is correct; but it
depends solely on passing -task.

I was wondering about having to do the scheme Rick suggested.
Thanks, Martin, for pointing out the further pitfalls.

It's a shame that it works like it does.  I'd have thought that
what I want to do is the simplest and most obvious thing that
anybody would want to use a taskwindow for: to run a command
line app in a window /and/ to get notification when it finishes.

Dave
