Name
HideScreen -- hide public screen (V7.1)
Synopsis
HideScreen([s$])
Platforms
AmigaOS and compatibles only

Function
This function can be used to move the public screen specified in s$ to the back. If the s$ argument is omitted, the screen that is currently at the front will be moved to the back.

Note that in a multitasking environment like AmigaOS, all screens that aren't owned by your application can disappear at any time so you need to be prepared that this function fails because the screen doesn't exist any longer.

Inputs
s$
optional: name of public screen to move to back (defaults to an empty string which means move the current screen to the back)
Example
HideScreen()
This code moves the currently active screen to the back.
