+.SH NAME
+XrmMergeDatabases, XrmCombineDatabase, XrmCombineFileDatabase \- merge resource databases
+.SH SYNTAX
+.HP
+void XrmMergeDatabases(\^XrmDatabase \fIsource_db\fP, XrmDatabase
+*\fItarget_db\fP\^);
+.HP
+void XrmCombineDatabase(\^XrmDatabase \fIsource_db\fP, XrmDatabase
+*\fItarget_db\fP, Bool \fIoverride\fP\^);
+.HP
+Status XrmCombineFileDatabase(\^char *\fIfilename\fP, XrmDatabase
+*\fItarget_db\fP\^, Bool \fIoverride\fP);
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.IP \fIsource_db\fP 1i
+Specifies the resource database that is to be merged into the target database.
+.IP \fItarget_db\fP 1i
+Specifies the resource database into which the source
+database is to be merged.
+.IP \fIfilename\fP 1i
+Specifies the resource database file name.
+.IP \fIoverride\fP 1i
+Specifies whether source entries override target ones.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Calling the
+.ZN XrmMergeDatabases
+function is equivalent to calling the
+.ZN XrmCombineDatabase
+function with an override argument of
+.ZN True .
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XrmCombineDatabase
+function merges the contents of one database into another.
+If the same specifier is used for an entry in both databases,
+the entry in the source_db will replace the entry in the target_db
+if override is
+.ZN True ;
+otherwise, the entry in source_db is discarded.
+If target_db contains NULL,
+.ZN XrmCombineDatabase
+simply stores source_db in it.
+Otherwise, source_db is destroyed by the merge, but the database pointed
+to by target_db is not destroyed.
+The database entries are merged without changing values or types,
+regardless of the locales of the databases.
+The locale of the target database is not modified.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XrmCombineFileDatabase
+function merges the contents of a resource file into a database.
+If the same specifier is used for an entry in both the file and
+the database,
+the entry in the file will replace the entry in the database
+if override is
+.ZN True ;
+otherwise, the entry in the file is discarded.
+The file is parsed in the current locale.
+If the file cannot be read,
+a zero status is returned;
+otherwise, a nonzero status is returned.
+If target_db contains NULL,
+.ZN XrmCombineFileDatabase
+creates and returns a new database to it.
+Otherwise, the database pointed to by target_db is not destroyed by the merge.
+The database entries are merged without changing values or types,
+regardless of the locale of the database.
+The locale of the target database is not modified.
