NAME

       wdmlogin.conf - configuration options for wdmLogin

DESCRIPTION

       /etc/X11/wdm/wdmlogin.conf  specifies  geometry and font attributes for
       wdmLogin, the login widget that is a component of the wdm package.   An
       alternate   location   for   this   file   can  be  specified  via  the
       wdmLoginConfig resource in /etc/X11/wdm/wdm.config.

       wdmlogin.conf uses the somewhat ill-documented libproplist file format.
       The   file   must   begin  and  end  with  an  open-  and  close-brace,
       respectively.  Between the braces, three options are available:

       geometry = (w, h, x, y);
              If set, this option allows the wdmLogin window to be resized and
              repositioned within the screen.  The x and y coordinates specify
              the location of the top  left  corner  of  the  window  and  are
              optional.

       aa = <yes|no>;
              If  set  to  yes, then support for antialiased fonts is enabled.
              Note that this is not currently supported by libWINGs in Debian,
              and thus has no effect.

       multibyte = <yes|no>;
              If  set  to  yes,  then  support for multibyte character sets is
              enabled.  Note that this is not currently supported by  libWINGs
              in Debian, and thus has no effect.

EXAMPLE

        {
               geometry = (530, 240);
               aa = no;
               multibyte = no;
        }
