Arguments: project
Looks for the "splash screen" window that might have been shown as the
running standalone application was starting up, and closes it if
found. Returns true if a splash window was found and closed, and
nil otherwise. It may be useful to call this
function when an app has finished starting up, rather than making the
end user wait for the splash screen to go away after an arbitrary
amount of time.
(See the descriptions of the +b and +Bt arguments in Command line arguments in startup.htm. Those arguments control the initial display of a splash screen. The screen is shown for a certain amount of time. kill-splash-screen allows you to kill the splash screen sooner if desired.)
In a standalone Common Graphics application that was generated from a project, this function is called automatically if the project's kill-splash-screen-when-ready option is true, as it is by default.
