Um, no. I know how to create empty files. :)
Slink's default behavior leaves all the text from the previous user's
session on the screen, and writes /etc/issue to the screen at the
bottom, with all this old session text above it. Red Hat prints /etc/issue
(I assume that's the file) on a blank screen at the screen's top. How?
