Hey all,
I've hopefully finished the GDMconfig manual for now, minus the screen
shots. If anyone has a few spare seconds, could they through a few eyes at
it? This document has been reviewed before. I've added sections called
Expert Options and System Options, so those are the ones that need
attention the attention.
Any comments welcome and thanks in advance.
later,
