Resources & Command Line Options Resource Format There are a number of files in which resources are specified. Generally they are specified in the user's .Xdefaults file or the system wide application defaults file. The .Xdefaults file resides in the user's home directory and resources specified in it only affect invocations of TeemTalk made by the owning user. Note: Changes made to the .Xdefaults file will not take effect until the X server has been restarted or the database 'freshened' by the program xrdb. The applications resource file contains resources specified in exactly the same way as those in the .Xdefaults file except that they affect all users. The environment variable XAPPLRESDIR will normally be set to point to the app-defaults directory. The name of the file to create in the app-defaults directory is: xteemx340 for TeemTalk with graphics emulation support. xteemx320 for TeemTalk with no graphics emulations. which should be placed in the directory specified by XAPPLRESDIR. Each line in the resource file consists of the name of the client (e.g. xteemx340) followed by an asterisk then the name of the resource (e.g. kbdType). The resource name is separated from its definition or value by a colon and whitespace. Example: xteemx340*kbdType: sun5 xteemx340*pseudocolor: on Resources are case sensitive on UNIX based systems, so pay particular attention to the upper or lowercase form of characters in the resources described in this chapter. A backslash (\) at the end of a line enables the current resource definition to continue on the next line. Comment lines can be inserted by starting each line with an exclamation mark (!). 25-2

Resources & Command Line Options
Resource Format
There are a number of files in which resources are specified. Generally they are
specified in the user's
.Xdefaults
file or the system wide application defaults file.
The
.Xdefaults
file resides in the user's home directory and resources specified in it
only affect invocations of TeemTalk made by the owning user.
Note:
Changes made to the
.Xdefaults
file will not take effect until
the
X
server has been restarted or the database 'freshened'
by the program
xrdb.
The applications resource file contains resources specified in exactly the same way
as those in the
.Xdefaults
file except that they affect all users. The environment
variable
XAPPLRESDIR
will normally be set to point to the
app-defaults
directory.
The name of the file to create in the
app-defaults
directory is:
xteemx340
for TeemTalk with graphics emulation support.
xteemx320
for TeemTalk with no graphics emulations.
which should be placed in the directory specified by
XAPPLRESDIR
.
Each line in the resource file consists of the name of the client (e.g.
xteemx340
)
followed by an asterisk then the name of the resource (e.g.
kbdType
). The resource
name is separated from its definition or value by a colon and whitespace.
Example:
xteemx340*kbdType:
sun5
xteemx340*pseudocolor:
on
Resources are case sensitive on UNIX based systems, so pay particular attention to the
upper or lowercase form of characters in the resources described in this chapter.
A backslash (
\
) at the end of a line enables the current resource definition to continue
on the next line. Comment lines can be inserted by starting each line with an excla-
mation mark (
!
).
