Version 2.65. Tagged as 'Desktop-2_65'

Templates file updated to "Iyonix" one, for now.

Version 2.64. Tagged as 'Desktop-2_64'

Now ignores the first Message_ModeChange received but does act on the second one in the manner intended (ie closes banner window). The first message is generated by the Wimp during one of the first Wimp_Polls, but old Wimps corrupted the message list pointer they were passed if the task didn't follow Wimp_StartTask (which is the case with the initial *Desktop that launches the desktop) so this bug was never apparent before.

Version 2.58. Tagged as 'Desktop-2_58'

When Boot$Error is set to a non-empty string on exit to this module,
an error box is displayed. For STB's, this error box only has one
