-24- How can I set resources?


  There are many ways to set resources. Resources may be listed in
  files or contained in a data base. Consult a book on X as well as the
  xrdb(1) manpage for detailed descriptions.  Generally speaking, if
  xrdb is not used, resource files are specified through environment
  variables.  "What is a good approach to take in looking for
  resources?" addresses the precedence of these files and variables.

  For some examples in IRIX 4.0.x, see the file
  /usr/tutor/Customize/example.Xdefaults.
