This program closes the workbench screen by brute force.
It creates a background task that attempts regulary to close the
workbench screen until success. Thus, this program can be placed wherever
you like a script file, it will close the workbench screen as soon as
possible, e.g. as soon as the CLI window goes away.
This is mainly useful in startup-sequences of several games that require
maximum chip ram.
