I have an X11 application which I want to compile and link (non-sharable) on one machine, and then distribute to others. But on the source system, X is compiled to use /local/lib/X11/app-defaults. The target systems use /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults or /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults. What to do? Does the X server fix it all for me, or can I set some variable when I link my application? Any help would be appreciated. Please respond by e-mail. Hallvard Furuseth University of Oslo hbf@usit.uio.no -- Hallvard
