+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XrmGetFileDatabase
+function opens the specified file,
+creates a new resource database, and loads it with the specifications
+read in from the specified file.
+The specified file should contain a sequence of entries in valid ResourceLine
+format (see section 15.1); the database that results from reading a file
+with incorrect syntax is implementation-dependent.
+The file is parsed in the current locale,
+and the database is created in the current locale.
+If it cannot open the specified file,
+.ZN XrmGetFileDatabase
+returns NULL.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XrmPutFileDatabase
+function stores a copy of the specified database in the specified file.
+Text is written to the file as a sequence of entries in valid
+ResourceLine format (see section 15.1).
+The file is written in the locale of the database.
+Entries containing resource names that are not in the Host Portable Character
+Encoding or containing values that are not in the encoding of the database
+locale, are written in an implementation-dependent manner.
+The order in which entries are written is implementation-dependent.
+Entries with representation types other than ``String'' are ignored.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XrmGetStringDatabase
+function creates a new database and stores the resources specified
+in the specified null-terminated string.
+.ZN XrmGetStringDatabase
+is similar to
+.ZN XrmGetFileDatabase
+except that it reads the information out of a string instead of out of a file.
+The string should contain a sequence of entries in valid ResourceLine
+format (see section 15.1) terminated by a null character;
+the database that results from using a string
+with incorrect syntax is implementation-dependent.
+The string is parsed in the current locale,
+and the database is created in the current locale.
+.LP
+If database is NULL,
+.ZN XrmDestroyDatabase
+returns immediately.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XrmLocaleOfDatabase
+function returns the name of the locale bound to the specified
+database, as a null-terminated string.
+The returned locale name string is owned by Xlib and should not be
+modified or freed by the client.
+Xlib is not permitted to free the string until the database is destroyed.
+Until the string is freed,
+it will not be modified by Xlib.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XrmGetDatabase
+function returns the database associated with the specified display.
+It returns NULL if a database has not yet been set.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XrmSetDatabase
+function associates the specified resource database (or NULL)
+with the specified display.
+The database previously associated with the display (if any) is not destroyed.
+A client or toolkit may find this function convenient for retaining a database
+once it is constructed.
+.SH "FILE SYNTAX"
+The syntax of a resource file is a sequence of resource lines
+terminated by newline characters or the end of the file.
+The syntax of an individual resource line is:
+.LP
+.\" Start marker code here
+.EX
+ResourceLine = Comment | IncludeFile | ResourceSpec | <empty line>
+Comment = "!" {<any character except null or newline>}
+IncludeFile = "#" WhiteSpace "include" WhiteSpace FileName WhiteSpace
+FileName = <valid filename for operating system>
+ResourceSpec = WhiteSpace ResourceName WhiteSpace ":" WhiteSpace Value
+ResourceName = [Binding] {Component Binding} ComponentName
+Binding = "\&." | "*"
+WhiteSpace = {<space> | <horizontal tab>}
+Component = "?" | ComponentName
+ComponentName = NameChar {NameChar}
+NameChar = "a"\-"z" | "A"\-"Z" | "0"\-"9" | "_" | "-"
+Value = {<any character except null or unescaped newline>}
+.EE
+.LP
+Elements separated by vertical bar (|) are alternatives.
+Curly braces ({\&.\&.\&.}) indicate zero or more repetitions
+of the enclosed elements.
+Square brackets ([\&.\&.\&.]) indicate that the enclosed element is optional.
+Quotes ("\&.\&.\&.") are used around literal characters.
+.LP
+IncludeFile lines are interpreted by replacing the line with the
+contents of the specified file.
+The word ``include'' must be in lowercase.
+The file name is interpreted relative to the directory of the file in
+which the line occurs (for example, if the file name contains no
+directory or contains a relative directory specification).
+.LP
+If a ResourceName contains a contiguous sequence of two or more Binding
+characters, the sequence will be replaced with single ``\&.'' character
+if the sequence contains only ``\&.'' characters;
+otherwise, the sequence will be replaced with a single ``*'' character.
+.LP
+A resource database never contains more than one entry for a given
+ResourceName. If a resource file contains multiple lines with the
+same ResourceName, the last line in the file is used.
+.LP
+Any white space characters before or after the name or colon in a ResourceSpec
+are ignored.
+To allow a Value to begin with white space,
+the two-character sequence ``\^\\\^\fIspace\fP'' (backslash followed by space)
+is recognized and replaced by a space character,
+and the two-character sequence ``\^\\\^\fItab\fP''
+(backslash followed by horizontal tab)
+is recognized and replaced by a horizontal tab character.
+To allow a Value to contain embedded newline characters,
+the two-character sequence ``\^\\\^n'' is recognized and replaced by a
+newline character.
+To allow a Value to be broken across multiple lines in a text file,
+the two-character sequence ``\^\\\^\fInewline\fP''
+(backslash followed by newline) is
+recognized and removed from the value.
+To allow a Value to contain arbitrary character codes,
+the four-character sequence ``\^\\\^\fInnn\fP'',
+where each \fIn\fP is a digit character in the range of ``0''\^\-``7'',
+is recognized and replaced with a single byte that contains
+the octal value specified by the sequence.
+Finally, the two-character sequence ``\^\\\\'' is recognized
+and replaced with a single backslash.
