<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>The dthello client provides transition visuals from the end of login
to the start of the window manager in the user's session.</para>
<para>Upon invocation, the dthello client will create an override-redirect
window the size of the screen and draw a specified message on it. At the same
time, a 1x1 window is created that will be picked up by the window manager.
When the window manager reparents the little window (an indication that the
window manager has started), this program exits.</para>
<para>The message may be specified on the command line, or in a text file.
</para>
