How do you use resources to alter the appearances of children of
XmSelectionBoxes?  For example, suppose I have a XmPromptDialog 
XmSelectionBox and it has a text input area and two
buttons, the default button (with the label "save") and the cancel
button (with the label "abort").  How do I, for instance, make the 
background of the default button green?

I tried things like:

	*XmSelectionBox*save*background: green

but that had no effect (the *name* of the button isn't "save", that's
only its label).  

	*XmSelectionBox*defaultButton*background: green

also had no effect, although I had had higher hopes for that (apparently
defaultButton is neither the button's name or class, so it had no effect).

	*XmSelectionBox*ok*background: green
	*XmSelectionBox*OK*background: green
	*XmSelectionBox*Ok*background: green

also had no effect.

Can anyone help me?
