 
The function 
dismiss-splash-screen
 makes a startup screen (as specified via the 
:startup-bitmap-file
 delivery keyword) disappear.
If 
forcep
 is 
nil
 then the startup screen is displayed for a minimum of 5 seconds before disappearing. If 
forcep
 is true then the startup screen disappears when 
dismiss-splash-screen
 is called. The default value of 
forcep
 is 
nil
.
If 
dismiss-splash-screen
 is not called, the startup screen appears for 30 seconds.
Note: the user can dismiss the startup screen by clicking on it.
For more information about specifying a startup screen in your application, see the entry for 
:startup-bitmap-file
 in the 
LispWorks Delivery User Guide
