Start in a throw-away clone / CL option

[Malarki]

I often use Throw-Away Clone, and always want to have only that, with no regular XY running concurrently. To expedite getting to that state, I'd like a way to open directly into TAC.

I always start XY from the taskbar, so it would be cool if I could eg. hold down Shift or Ctl while doing that and get a TAC instead of regular XY. But maybe Windows would make that difficult.

An alternative is a command-line option e.g. "/clone" to open XY as a TAC, that I could put into an XY shortcut; and I'll drag that to my taskbar. This would fit right in with the existing command-line switches such as "/fresh".

Using the "/fresh" switch would probably get me a read-only i.e. throw-away instance (?) but from the Help I'm not sure of that. And then I wouldn't have the scripts and customizations of my regular XY, which I would prefer to have available in this throw-away instance.

I suppose that I could write a script that would /feed into XY on startup, to open a TAC and shut down the regular XY, but that's comparatively clumsy.

I don't see that this has been brought up before.

Thanks

Another example of Don's astounding response speed. I barely got done asking for it... and it's there!

You need to be ahead of AI these days, so I train myself to grant wishes before they are asked for.
