Slim login screen / "For more options: man slim"

Just like Firefox embarrasses me regularly with its (well, well-intentioned) "this is embarrassing"-message(1), my aesthetic sensation gets regularly confused by Slim's login screen, telling me howto man - every morning anew. (More general argumentation below.)

I suggest to modify the line

For more options: man slim

in desktop-base/slim/devuan-curve-darkpurpy/panel.png to something like

For more options: RTLM(*)
(*)read the libre manual

no patch, because I couldn't find the original vector graphics, but at least a constructive proposal :)

This would transport approximately the same information ( "this program is named slim" , "it is configurable" , "there is a manpage" ), while not bugging the (AFAIU targeted) experienced sysadmin with too obvious "good advice" - a user who doesn't know themancommand, most likely wouldn't understand the instructions in place anyway.

That's it: My first Devuan being-bug-ed report!

(1) If you never hit Firefox mobile 's "feedback" menu item: Don't - it could make you feel sad ;)
