I don't use spirit.ocx - I work directly with the bytecodes, but I think
this info is true for spirit.ocx as well...
The number in StartTask(number) refers to a task within a program (each
program can have multiple tasks). Typically, you would use this to spawn
off additional tasks from within a program.
Since task 0 is the task activated by the "Run" button, you can run a
program by using StartTask(0). You can select which program to run with
the SelectProgram() command.
