+#@(#) smb-wall.pl Description:
+#@(#) A perl script which allows you to announce whatever you choose to
+#@(#) every PC client currently connected to a Samba Server...
+#@(#) ...using "smbclient -M" message to winpopup service.
+#@(#) Default usage is to message every connected PC.
+#@(#) Alternate usage is to message every pc on the argument list.
+#@(#) Hacked up by Keith Farrar <farrar@parc.xerox.com>
+#
+# Cleanup and corrections by
+# Michal Jaegermann <michal@ellpspace.math.ualberta.ca>
+# Message to send can be now also fed (quietly) from stdin; a pipe will do.
+#=============================================================================
