I think it was Bill Vlahos who pointed me to some Apple web pages with this 
info for login.  It is in the archive, no doubt.  IIRC, you put the 
executable and a couple text files in a folder.  The text files are XML 
definitions (not XML), I think.

Do you want startup or login?

The methods are a little different (and I may be confusing the two, above)
.  The GUI may not be ready for the first and the application might fail.  
(One would hope gui calls would simply be ignored.)

I better shut up and let Bill explain.
