@All
Have some user-kind issue annoy me a little bit : on the boot i load up lot of stuff automatically : dopus4, shell window, amidock, xdock, lots of commodities, etc.

So, once boot in progress, i see the workbench showed up it's face, then dopus4 and shell window runs, then amidock, xdock, commodities start to load up. And once everything loads up, i want my shell window to be active by default, without me needs to touch mouse when i want to type something in the shell window after boot.

Is there anything i can do in the system by saying it something like "once all loads up, make shell window to be active one" ?

ps. The shell window running from user-startup script, as the last entry in. All the other stuff, runs from the WBStartup.

Last started programs should be the active one, should be possible to set the start priority in WBStartup program.

You could use something like
Run <>NILWait 3 +
   
NewShell CON:...
in your User-Startup.
If your last WBStartup program activating it's window takes longer than 3 seconds to start increase the number of seconds in the Wait command.

if you use RAWBInfo, then juts on WBStartup prefs click on entry and you should see "Start priority" and set it to a lower value so it starts last one.

Not sure but think tooltype is "PRIORITY=<value>"

Thanks! That did the trick, in my case 6 + were enough.
