     Is there a way to change the background WITHOUT a running WindowServer?
For example, if the NeXT is displaying the login window, the WindowServer
isn't running.  So, if the NeXT doesn't have someone logged in, I can't
change the background.  I'd like to have a timed, ~daily change of the
background without assuming that the WindowServer is active.
     Any possibility?  Thanks a lot for your replies!
