You do NOT want to do that! HIDE generates overhead; you have to
use it judiciously, or you will see a degradation in speed,
especially in PMs where HIDE occurs within a loop (repeated
Hiding|Unhiding). AUTOHIDE every time you call a U2 frame?!?
That's ridiculous, a profligate use of resources. Hide only the
S/Gs that you really need to hide. Or RENUMBER your parent routine
to avoid the S/G clash.
