[[ This is all supposed to be one line:  --wnl ]]

cmdtool -Wp 150 150 -Wf 100 1 1 -Wb 205 255 225 -Wg \
-font /usr/lib/fonts/fixedwidthfonts/cour.b.16 -Wg -label PACIFIC rlogin pacific

This line works fine. Note the -label option along with the font, size,
location, color (color machine: -Wf = forground rgb -Wb = background rgb)
as well as the rlogin are all in my .suntools file.
