> Summary
>     glogin will open a new window with the ganymede login. After logging =
> in, the main client window will appear.=20
> 
>     One property must be loaded in the client, ganymede.serverhost. If =

> 
>     glogin takes one optional parameter, -debug. If present, the =
> application will output extra debugging information.=20
> 
> Usage
>     There are two main areas of the client: the tree, and the window =
> panel. The tree holds a node for each object visible to the user. The =
> window panel holds the internal windows which allow for editing of the =
> objects in the server. A menu bar is at the top of the screen, and a =
> status bar is at the bottom.=20
> 
>     The Tree
>         The tree acts much like the tree in the Windows Explorer. =
> Folders are opened either by clicking on the plus sign in front of the =
> folder or by double clicking on the folder or the text.=20
> 
>         =20
>         There are three things in the tree: categories (red folders), =
> object types (yellow folders), and objects. Categories are used to =
> organize the tree. Object types represent the basic types of information =
> held in the tree(users, groups). Objects are the individual items in the =
> database.=20
> 
>         Much of the tree's functionality is accessed through the use of =
> the right mouse button, or the appropriate popup-menu trigger for the =
> system. When the right mouse button is clicked a menu will be drawn over =
> the item. (Sometimes the menu is not aligned with the tree correctly on =
> Windows 95 machines. This is a known bug in Java 1.1.5.) The menu will =
> be different depending on the type of object clicked on and the current =
> state of the client.=20
> 
>         By default, only editable objects are displayed in the tree. In =
> order to see all permissible objects you can choose the "Show all =
> objects" menu item on the corresponding object type(yellow folder.) This =
> will mix in the editable and non-editable objects, and the editable =
> objects will have a slightly different icon to distinguish them.=20
> 
>         The icons for different objects in the tree can change when =
> actions are taken. Currently, all objects currently open for editing =
> will have a pencil icon, all objects waiting to be deleted have a trash =
> can icon, and all objects currently inactivated have a clock icon. After =
> a session is committed or canceled, the icons may revert back to the =
> original state or may be removed from the tree completely.=20
> 
>     The Window Panel
>         The window panel holds all the currently open objects. These =
> windows can be moved, iconified, maximized, and closed just like normal =
> windows. Each window also has its own menu bar, which can be used to =
> take actions on the object.=20
> 
>         =20
>         The tabs just below the menu bar are used to select different =
> editing panes in the window. The "General" tab contains all the custom =
> information. The other tabs contain various built-in fields. "Owner" =
> shows the owners of this object. "Notes" shows information about the =
> creation and deletion of this object, along with a text area for writing =
> notes. A small note icon will be placed in the "Notes" tab if there are =
> any notes for this object. The "History" tab leads to a panel that =
> allows a trace of this object's history.=20
> 
>         The "Persona" tab is only available on "User" objects. This =
> panel allows editing of admin personae associated with the user object.=20
