[comp.sys.sgi] login icons revisited

blbates@AERO4.LARC.NASA.GOV ("Brent L. Bates AAD/TAB MS361 x42854") (11/02/90)

    If you make a directory ~/.4sight/icons and put an image file
in there with the name login.icon, that image will be used for
the login screen.  The image must be less than or equal to
100x100 pixels.

Read the pandora(1) man page for complete details.  Pandora also looks in
/usr/local/lib/faces and /usr/lib/faces as documented on the man page.  We've
set up a face server here at SGI where we put all the faces on one machine
in /usr/local/lib/faces.  Everyone whose interested mounts that directory
on /usr/lib/faces on their machine.  The print spooler and mail programs
will probably start using faces soon.
