Yes, it's true. Another one of those darn boot image
display systems. When started from CLI, RatSalad displays
a random IFF-ILBM file from a given directory, but when
started wrom WB, it closes the previously open screen.
So, you can call the executable from startup-sequence
and it will display an image until it is called again
by WBStartup. Cunning, huh?

To install simply execute the script. You will be asked
to insert C:RatSalad in your startup-sequence manualy.
That line should be somewhere behind SetPatch and
similar patches. I've included my startup-sequence
in the archive, have a looksee if you're not sure
where to insert RatSalad exactly.
If you don't want to use s:ratsalad for your image
directory, you can use an alternative one and
supply its pathname as RatSalad's first argument.
One way or another, the target directory should
contain NOTHING BUT IFF-ILBM images.

BTW, RatSalad is named after a BlackSabbath song and
is absolutely free. Use it, modify it - I don't care.
I'm not to be blamed if it does anything nasty. All I can
say is "works fine for me". The example images were
drawn by various other people.
