[comp.sys.hp] vuelogin

  We'd like to give an option to users to start up a vue session
instead of our homogenous generic X setup.

  The only way to do this (since we don't have BLOODY source like we
do for xdm) is to fiddle with some resources, I'm looking for
vuelogin's analogue of xdm's set-session-argument.

  I want to install a translation that looks like this:

Vuelogin*Login.translations: #override \
	<Key>F2: set-session-argument(vue) finish-field()

  A similar translation

xlogin*login.translations: #override\
	<Key>F1: set-session-argument(failsafe) finish-field()

  works on our suns.

  I realize that the pretty way to do this would be to fix the source
and put it under a menu, but I can't really do that now, can I?

  If I don't recieve an answer BY EMAIL in a week I'll have already
switched to xdm (more flexible and infinitely more supportable with
source).
