how to change "Doubleclick on the user to log in"

[Richard Gill math uu nl]

Hi,

Noone responded to my question of a few days ago so I hope you folks
will not mind if I ask it again. It concerns the graphical greeter in gdm.
I'm using gdm 2.6.0 and Fedora Core II.

During log-in with the graphical greeter,
if you click on a user's face their username is entered into the
dialogue box and you see the message "Doubleclick on the user to log in".

I'd like to change this message into (e.g.)
"Click after your name in the dialogue box, and hit 'Enter'"

I looked in various gdm directories but could not find where this text
is taken from. Do I have to go to the source and rebuild gdm?
Where will I find the prompt messages?

That was the question. Then a comment. The login procedure is clumsy.
After you have clicked on your face, you'd just like to type in your
password next. Why do anything else? (the only other possibility
would be to click another face, or type another name,
because you noticed you'd chosen the  wrong one).

The present text "Doubleclick on the user to log in" is extremely
annoying since, as far as I can see, you still have to doubleclick
TWICE on the face to long in (and you've already clicked once...).

Yours
