Recap: Tony asked for a name change for his "Display"

Recap 2: Anand asks "Displaying where?"

Recap 3: Matt replies " Erm, I'd guess in pine, you know how pine expands
the user name if the login name exists within ftoomsh."

Here's my 3 bytes or so worth...

Firstly, I am assuming that you wish your name to show "Tony Ngo" instead
of "Tony Minh Ngo" as your default user identity (I am not referring to
your login name, Stance in this case) on output of certain commands. This
User ID in this case is normally on display on output of commands such as
"finger", "pine" and the like... So Anand, (and I hope you're there =P)
can such a change be done ?

PS: Tony, to alter your name on your default for Pine, and this can be
done, use the keys "S" then "C" to go into your set-up configuration and
alter your name there. This won't however alter your default UID (Anand or
some other exec member will have to do this...), but it will allow you to
refer to yourself as "Tony Ngo" instead of "Tony Minh Ngo" in your E-Mail
in Progsoc.

Hope this helps...
