Re: [HTCondor-users] DOS window flashing

[brad.32@xxxxxxxxxxx]

In the submit file(s), "notification = never" because I don't want any  
emails to be generated. I have no SMTP_SERVER, CONDOR_ADMIN, or  
MAIL_FROM set, so I don't expect condor to try to send emails.

The windows appear and close (flash) too fast for me to see what is  
executing in them.

Thank you.
