iQuip displays a new amusing quotation in the Login Window every time you start up your Mac. With an easy-to-use preference pane, you can select from a variety of categories containing thousands of quotations. You can also enter your own quotations to be displayed, or use any of the hundreds of Unix 'fortune' files which are available on the internet. iQuip has a tiny footprint and does not run any background processes on your system.
Simple little program for those who like to change the look of the mac. It's one of those things where people see your computer & say "Wow! How'd you do that?"
Why stare at the same old boring login when you can have a quote of the day? These range from Literature & religion, to Star Trek & The Simpsons. It has the ability to rotate the quotes so you don't know what you're going to get if you so desire. Best of all, if you don't like the TONS of pre-programed quotes you can make your own. Editing your own list of quotes is simple (much easier than changing the hard coding as I was doing) & your only hindrance is the speed of your typing. And you can lock the changes so your kid doesn't mess with it - it even auto locks if you leave it alone for too long.
Have never had a problem with this program & have been using it for years. Great job by the developers!
