	I am running SR10.2 on a 3500 and developing a working environment that
I will port to 2500's for a community of users.  I want to run with xownsroot, 
and I want uwm to start up automatically upon login but would like that as 
part of the standard configuration rather than in .login (where it would be 
a user option). 

	I have put the uwm option in startup_login[.type] as a cpo
command line very much like the one that starts xterm (described by the manual)
and just before the xterm startup.  This seems to work.

	Is this the "best" way to do this; might there be problems I have not
foreseen; what other alternatives would give me the working environment I'm
trying to establish?  I was unable to find any hints about this in the Apollo
documentation: can anyone point me to documentation on this?

	Thanks for any help you can offer.
