We have an application that creates multiple top-level windows.

We would like to provide a command line argument(s) that allows the
user to specify x number of these windows.  Each window may use a
different resource name in order to specify alternate resource values.

For example:

    $ app -window blue -window red

This would create two top level windows, one with a resource name "blue"
and one woth a resource name "red".

Xt will only return the last "-window" argument when parsing the command
line.

Pre-processing the command line is an option, but we were curious if there
was an alternative.

Any help is appreciated.
