- If you use Stuart and keep a window miniaturized, the shading on
- the window icon will change when the contents of that window
- change. Hence, make all your login windows writeable by only
- you (do a 'mesg n' in them) and keep one miniaturized (do a 'mesg
- y' in that one). Just to make sure talk requests don't go to the
- console, you might want to do a 'chmod og-w /dev/console'.
