|Has anybody succeeded to change defaults of a XView application
|which don't fall under the resources described in the xview.1 manpage ?
|
|Here are some defaults I'd very much like to be able to change:

[stuff deleted which I can't help with, and would like to know myself!]

|- default user@host in the calendar manager
|  Since we have many workstations and some servers it is better to 
|  have all calendars on the same server host. So my default calendar
|  should not be user@localhost but user@serverhost. I'm not able to 
|  change this.
|
|- default mail address in the calendar manager

For this, the solution I have used for about 3 weeks now is:

rsh serverhost cm

This has given me no problems with the DISPLAY variable, etc.  Of
course, I have all all kinds of wierd stuff in my .cshrc & .login
files to track which machine I've logged in on originally, so I may
actually be doing all the work myself & have just forgotten about it.

Of course, if you have problems with this, you could use batch files
to do the work for you.

Good luck.

I remain,
