If this has been discussed to death in this conference, please forgive
me.

I am interested in how those of you who are using xdm, are makeing use
of it.

I am operating in a mixed shop.  Some X11.3, some X10.4, some UWS 2.0,
a variety of manufacturer's workstations, and now, a few X-terminals are
showing up.  Prior to the arrival of the X-terminals, I had been making
use of the /etc/ttys entry to have init fire off a login Xterm.  Now, I
am making use of "xdm" to do the same for the X-terminals.

I am interested in how the rest of you, who may be using xdm, are using
it.  I am particuarly interested in the kinds of "tricks" you are using
in the Xsession and .xsession files.

Responses here or I will summarize those that are sent to me at...
