1067.0. "Xprompter and Color Maps" by DECWET::SERACK (Ken Serack) Wed Jul 05 1989 19:53

    
    VAXstation II GPX running Ultrix and DECwindows.
    
    Which colormap does Xprompter use, if any???
    
    Where can I make changes that affect the color of the login dialog 
    box and the DEC logo??
    
    Thanks,
    Ken Serack

Xprompter should use the default color map.  It has no reason to make
its own.  Put your new resources in /.Xdefaults.  If they are read
from anywhere, they should be read from there.

	Just to confirm what .-1 said, some changes or customizations you make
for the root account will effect the Xprompter.  We've only changed window
colors and background colors.  The background colors and/or patterns DO NOT get
used with the Xprompter screen but the window foreground and background do.

I think that function is in LOGINOUT.EXE.  But as I recall, it provides its own
resources.
