PanelHack - a hack on the Apple Network Server (AIX)
====================================================

and random other folk that helped us get the machine up, but weren't
around when I typed in this comment.
This hack writes silly strings to the display panel on the front of
the Apple Network Server (AIX) box.
panelhack -h dumps the panel hack usage string to the display panel
panelhack <string> dumps <string> to the display panel
panelhack dumps a random string to the display panel
You need root privilige to do this.
This is a hack. It is only a hack. It does nasty things to NVRAM, so be careful
if you twiddle things so that you don't fry your system by writing into some other
part of NVRAM.
