There was a problem hiding this comment.
Moved so that the initialization is loaded before showing the welcome. Otherwise, the instructions in init.ml are ignored when deciding if we show the welcome message.

utopas a stripped down interpreter in the shell, which is mostly achievable with the existing configuration options. However, the welcome message tends to take up space and "break" if you resize a terminal window. This PR adds a handy config option,UTop.set_show_welcometo disable it (similar toUTop.set_show_box), while still defaulting to an "enabled" setting to preserve backwards compatibility.The README and man pages are updated accordingly.
