      #

      #            2nd -> unique name
      #                       which is required only when a same adl screen is launched
      #                       in multi-times with another macro parameters

Note

• The same application window will not be launched more than once by this script.
  • Application windows which are already launched are skipped.
• Whether an application window is already launched or not is determined by the window title.
  • This script changes the window title for all application windows as a unique name.
  • If there are some application windows which is launched by another ways, managing window-title may break down.
  • So, don't launch application window in manually on monitor PCs if you want to use this script.
