How can one get xdm to read the appropriate .login or .profile file for a 
user it is starting up?  Kind of a pain since you really don't want to
set PATH over and over again in the .cshrc file.

Is there something I'm missing here?

Also,  if one wants to run xdm by default, where is the best place to 
start it up?  (rc.local?  ttytab?)
