Re: Interactive logon banner message

I tried that myself. It does not seem to work as expected. What I did is to
enter the text message in normal mode (double-click the value and type).
Then, right-click and select "Modify binary". However, when I try to replace
the space character with the string provided in article, I see that the
single space character is being replaced by bunch of squares (and the rest
of the text is missing as well).
