Are there any neat tricks to debug resource files -- like a program that will take a pair of strings representing a widgets hierarchy and tell you which resources will be set from which files (app-defaults, $XENVIRONMENT, .Xdefaults). Also, is there a debugging function that will print out a widgets inheritance (class and name of ancestors). The fact that x-resources work is proof that this information is in there somewhere. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |Favorite Fruit-Man origin: A.
