I have an application that contains a list on a viewport.

I set the default translations in the app-defaults file as follows:

     *translations:		#override \
	<Btn2Down>:		rescan()	\n\
	<Btn3Down>:		show(biff) hide(list)

This works just fine unless I add the following to my ~/.Xdefaults
file:

	xmp*translations:	#override \
		<Key>c:		userCommand()

This causes the translations in the app-defaults file to be
completely ignored.

What am I doing wrong here?
