	Project: LogHook

	File: LoginHook.m

	Description:

	This is a simple program intended to be run as the LoginHook of the loginWindow.  When set up as such, this program will be executed immediately after the user types their password, but before they are logged in.  This means that the program will be run with the same owner as the loginWindow, which is generally root.  A single command line parameter is specified for this program, and that is the name of the user who is logging in.
	When LoginHook is run, it sets the owner of the process to the user who is logging in, and then executes the login hook command, which is defined by LoginHook's Hook preference setting.  This preference is "~/.LoginHook" by default ("~" being the home of the user logging in), but each user can specify their own by changing the setting in their own defaults database for the owner LoginHook.
