LoginWindow Manager ReviewInvaluable for our computer labs - Version: 2.0.1, 11/2/2005 07:22PM PST

The ability to run a log-in script is really helpful. The only thing that would make this program better for us if if it would only be necessary to enter the log-in password once instead of four times.

LoginWindow Manager CommentaryCool app, can't beat the price, but... - Version: 2.0, 5/15/2005 01:19AM PST

...it would be even cooler if this were a Preference Panel, after all, it's exactly for settings like these that the System Preferences application was written.
It's already bad enough that TinkerTool is a separate app (different developer, I know, but similarly useful).

Also, several of the settings are now accessible in System Preferences standard in Tiger, but there are still a few tricks in LWM's bag that Apple doesn't ship a GUI for yet.

The product requirements for v2 seem to be wrong. On the developer's home page, it doesn't say anything about this version being Tiger-only, and in fact, it implies that it works on Panther or Tiger.
