I am trying to set the resources of a command widget from within 
the .Xdefaults file.

The name of the application is "xg", the widget instance is 
called "hit", and this is what I have.

xg*hit.width	:300
xg*hit.height	:200
xg*hit.x	:950
xg*hit.y	:650

This doesn't work - I'd still need to use the mouse to specify location and
size of the window.

BUT, if I change it to:

xg*hit.width	:300
xg*hit.height	:200
xg*.x		:950
xg*.y		:650

it works!! i.e. no user interaction necessary.

What is the correct string (instance/class name perhaps) that should be 
inserted between "xg" and "x"?

Thanks in advance for any advice/comments!
