NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
The Athena login is the most filthy disgusting Cthulian horror
abomination ever to exist.
Looking at it will cause brain damage. Attempting to edit it will
cause insanity. Using it will cause annoyance.
I've been in the process of adding athena login stuff to a cleaned-up
version of the standard Linux login. I've put a fair amount of time
into this. I was going to wait until I've gotten further to announce
this, but I haven't worked on it in like a week, and now you've rushed
my announcement.
What I've got so far is in /mit/linux/svalente/login.
More news to follow.
Have a nice day.
