 Forgive me if the answer to this question is located somewhere in the
 manuals, but I'm getting eyestrain for poring over them (they are
 actually very good).  We're running an evaluation copy of OV 3.0
 (expires 12/05/92) and I was wondering if any of the experienced
 OpenViewer's know how to automate the startup procedure.

 Ideally, I would like a script, when run, that brings up OpenView,
 the default map, and then opens up a bunch of graphics, statistics,
 MIB walks, etc.  All pre-defined.  For example, on the current map,
 I would want it to automatically open up the IP sub-map, then
 the segment1 sub-map, and then automatically bring up the graph of
 interface traffic for Wabbit (an example machine/object).  

 I believe this may be possible thru manipulation of the .LRF files
 in the /usr/OV/lrf subdirectory, and will continue to look thru
 the manuals.  But if anyone has this sort of setup already done,
 I would love to know how.  It is to be used for a sales presentation,
 so a person could quickly run OV and bring up pertinent information
 without wasting time on highlighting objects, adding them to the
 selection list, etc., etc.
