How to hide desktop in LW application?

Hi, is there any way to hide all OS X desktop folders and open 
applications in LW?

MyLwApp shows Hide Others in the menu, and I can manually make them 
hide - but how to hide them by default when MyLwApp boots up?

This page list the option :others-hidden but where exactly should I 
patch it in?

An example of hiding would be very helpful!

(setf (capi:top-level-interface-display-state lispworks-tools::*lispworks-application-interface*) :others-hidden)

will hide others in the IDE for example. Call this on the instance of capi:cocoa-default-application-interface you use for your app.

BTW, I didn't know all this before reading your question, but the doc page you pointed to has a link to the gf capi:top-level-interface-display-state, and an apropos on application-interface showed the special variable lispworks-tools::*lispworks-application-interface*. IOW, following links in the docs and apropos are your friends.
