Resources & Command Line Options 25 Resources & Command Line Options This chapter describes how to use resources and command line options to specify how TeemTalk is run and displayed by the X Window System. Introduction Resources are used to specify how TeemTalk is run and displayed by the X Window System. The resource configurations are stored in user preference files which are asserted when TeemTalk is loaded. This means, for example, that you do not have to specify how the TeemTalk window is to be displayed each time it is loaded. There are so many options which you could specify that including them on the command line for loading TeemTalk would be impractical. Once the normal resource specification for TeemTalk has been defined in a user preference file, the resource specifications for a particular instance of TeemTalk may be overridden using command line options. Note: The default settings of functions relating to terminal emulation are specified via pop-up menus in the TeemTalk window. These are described in the Setup Menus chapter. The following sections provide a brief introduction to using resources and command line options. For a more detailed discussion and information on resource debugging, refer to the section at the end of this chapter entitled Understanding X Resources. 25-1
