Yes, it shows up in PrcView. Incidentally, WinTop has always caused
problems on my Win98SE installation (having always worked fine on my
old Win95 system). It works OK, but if I recall correctly, problems
always appeared later when I tried to shut down. (I hope this isn't
misleading. I haven't repeated the experiment recently.)
