I'd like to set up a two or three line greeting in 
the xdm prompt window.  Anyone know how to do this?

Its probably more a question of how to set up text
resources that have carriage returns in X resource
files.  Xdm uses the resource setting:
	xlogin*greeting: greeting goes here

I've tried several ways of putting a "\n" in the
resource, but it gets ignored.  Can this be done?
