Signon Scripts 

It is possible to install a script that executes automatically when a
user signs on to HP Desk.  This provides a way of setting up user
environments beyond the scope of the usual HP Desk capability groups.

Installing a Signon Script 

Installing a signon script is done by using the HP Desk COPY command as
follows:

     Workarea > COPY "MYSIGNON" TO SIGNON

or, if the script has to be installed for another user:

     Workarea > copy "signon script" to signon of Mary Smith

Alternatively, you can make use of the &SIGNON script directive to
install a signon script for yourself.

To install a signon script for another user, you must have SysAdmin
capability and be a member of any capability groups of which the other
user is a member.

If a signon script is installed for a user, a warning message is printed
immediately after the "Last signed off" message as the signon process is
completed.  This message can be suppressed by placing the &QUIET
directive as the first line of the signon script.

If you issue a COPY TO SIGNON command and a signon script already exists
for yourself or the user in question, HP Desk will inform you that you
already have a signon script and ask if you want to purge the old one.

Removing a Signon Script 

Removal of a signon script is accomplished with the HP Desk DELETE
command:

     Workarea > DELETE SIGNON

or:

     Workarea > DELETE SIGNON OF MARY SMITH

To remove a signon script for another user, you must have SysAdmin
capability and be a member of any capability groups of which the other
user is a member.

The &SIGNON directive can also be used to remove a signon script.
