Okay, I've done some further testing, and have found that the 
prior version I was using (dated 2019-08-24 ver 1.19) works fine.  
Without changing anything else, if I drop in the newest DDMsg and 
DDFile (.js and .cfg), it does not work with the "false" command 
line parameter added.  Same default.src/.bin with both.

So it seems that something is not liking the word "false" with the 
latest version that comes with Git...  Thanks.
