Hi

Tim Reed:  Please give it a try... I made some changes from what you gave me...
  Oh... had please check into the warning if you get a chance.


xlockmore-5.07ALPHA12 as of 4 March 2003, the maintained version of xlock
Adapted from Patrick J. Naughton's original xlock

5.07ALPHA12
* Ability for xlock converse with PAM added by Tim Reed <treed1@twcny.rr.com>.
    Warning../../xlock/xlock.c:3849: warning: `struct pam_response' declared inside \
                parameter list
           ../../xlock/xlock.c:3849: warning: its scope is only this definition or \
                declaration, which is probably not what you want
* Fix for random.c when BLANK_ONLY is used.
  Restart life when static or blank.  Added Thompson's Day and Night and
    Bell's High Life.  These are alternate life rules.  Day and Night
    butterfly added as a glider shooter.
    Fixed Andreen's hex life can come up in addition to Callahan's.
    Added many life forms from Life Lexicon.
*   Trilife added randomly rotated and shooters added.
  Better fix for -rule3d and -v from Emmanuel Jeandel
    <ejeandel@ens-lyon.fr>.  I guess I went a little crazy with security
    and made it strncmp instead of strcmp.
  xlockgroup patch for allowing all in the xlock group to unlock.
    Thanks to Rich Anderson <RANDERSON@northropgrumman.com>.
  Syslog fix when gid not in /etc/group.
  life3d double buffering (also made wireframe come up a little less often)
    dead (blank) or static (period 1) life forms last just 8 generations
    Added gliders from http://www.cse.sc.edu/~bays/d4d4d4 3D applet.
  I copied a encrypted password to /etc/passwd and it worked fine without
    USE_XLOCKRC.  Put a warning in configure if /etc/passwd not set up and
    and not using USE_XLOCKRC and cygwin.
  Clean up of some text errors with BUTTON_LOGOUT and failure count.
  Added a Caps Lock check.  Don't you hate it when certain software says
    "Make sure that the Caps Lock is not accidently on." and the Caps Lock
    is not on... I thought computers can know their own state.
    added ", Caps Lock on" to invalid string.... needs French/Japanese
    translations (also needs German translation but others parts need that
    as well.
  cleaned up some various variable shadowing in modes.
  check_gl_error protection (previously it would error out... not good
    for a locker).  This could be a major security problem but I can not
    reproduce this on my Linux machine.  Someone was able to get a "texture"
    error by repeatingly pressing the middle button with glplanet up.
  text3d acts more like blank if it does not get a TTF file (blanks out
    password screen).  Fixed configure of DEF_TTFONT if prefix not set.
  Andreas Voegele <voegelas@gmx.net> pointed out -nice option was ignored...
    hopefully fixed now.  Check now for HAVE_SETPRIORITY.
  uninistall and clean on Cygwin should now work
  More Kerberos support thanks to Ken Hornstein <kenh@cmf.nrl.navy.mil>.
    support for the new krb5-config script to determine the correct
      options used to compile Kerberos
    - If you're using Kerberos, it prints your Kerberos principal in the
      username field.
    - It uses a callback function in case the library needs to prompt the
      user for any additional information (in case your password expires,
      for example).
    - It makes the writing out of credentials a configure option.
  -logoutButton minutes now in man pages.
  "configure --with-opengl --without-xpm" should now work for atlantis,
     atunnels, fire, and sballs.

 * new since last release
