###   By default, the desktop does not read your standard $HOME/.profile
###   or $HOME/.login files. This can be changed by uncommenting the
###   DTSOURCEPROFILE variable assignment at the end of this file. The
###   desktop reads .profile if your $SHELL is "sh" or "ksh", or .login
###   if your $SHELL is "csh".
###
###   The desktop reads the .dtprofile and .profile/.login without an 
###   associated terminal emulator such as xterm or dtterm. This means
###   there is no available command line for interaction with the user.
###   This being the case, these scripts must avoid using commands that
###   depend on having an associated terminal emulator or that interact
###   with the user. Any messages printed in these scripts will not be
###   seen when you log in and any prompts such as by the 'read' command
###   will return an empty string to the script. Commands that set a
###   terminal state, such as "tset" or "stty" should be avoided.
###
###   With minor editing, it is possible to adapt your .profile or .login
###   for use both with and without the desktop.  Group the statements not
###   appropriate for your desktop session into one section and enclose them
###   with an "if" statement that checks for the setting of the "DT"
###   environment variable. When the desktop reads your .profile or .login
###   file, it will set "DT" to a non-empty value for which your .profile or
###   .login can test. 
###   
###   example for sh/ksh
###   
###     if [ ! "$DT" ]; then
###       #
###       # commands and environment variables not appropriate for desktop
###       #
###       stty ...
###	   tset ...
###	   DISPLAY=mydisplay:0
###	   ...
###     fi	    
###
###     #
###     # environment variables common to both desktop and non-desktop
###     #
###     PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
###     MYVAR=value
###     export MYVAR
###     ...
###	  
###   example for csh
###
###     if ( ! ${?DT} ) then
###       #
###       # commands and environment variables not appropriate for desktop
###       #
###       stty ...
###       tset ...
###       setenv DISPLAY mydisplay:0
###       ...
###     endif
###
###     #
###     # environment variables common to both desktop and non-desktop
###     #
###     setenv PATH $HOME/bin:$PATH
###     setenv MYVAR value
###     ...
###  
###   Errors in .dtprofile or .profile (.login) may prevent a successful
###   login. If after you login, your session startup terminates and you
###   are presented with the login screen, this might be the cause. If this
###   happens, select the Options->Sessions->Failsafe Session item on the
###   login screen, login and correct the error. The $HOME/.dt/startlog and
###   $HOME/.dt/errorlog files may be helpful in identifying errors.
