This is actually a more general Intrinsics question, but I might as well start here. Is there any way to create a wildcard resource from within my application (e.g. at application startup add "*foreground: polkadot")? Secondly, is there anyway for my application to check and see if a particular resource has been defined, so that it can set the resource only if the user has not? -kee Alphalpha Software, Inc. | motif-request@alphalpha.com nazgul@alphalpha.com |----------------------------------- 617/646-7703 (voice/fax) | Proline BBS: 617/641-3722 I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's. -------
