Well, each Xt-based app *should* give information on its X resources in its man page, and xterm does. It is also possible to interrogate a running Xt-based app on what resources it supports (though, AFAICT, not their current values) using editres. You can also find out what resources are applicable to a particular app with appres. Finally, there are some (old) books on X Toolkit Intrinsics (a.k.a. Xt) which will explain the difference between XAPPLRESPATH, XFILESEARCHPATH, XUSERFILESEARCHPATH, and others (there is a book on SGI's online bookshelf, which is where I learned it; when I say online, I mean on their machines rather than on the web). So: man xterm xrdb editres appres book(s) on Xt } Best Regards, } mds --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
