Having this information in +the server (where it is available to all clients) instead of on disk, +solves the problem in previous versions of X that required you to +maintain \fIdefaults\fP files on every machine that you might use. +It also allows for dynamic changing of defaults without editing files. +.LP +The RESOURCE_MANAGER property is used for resources that apply to all +screens of the display. The SCREEN_RESOURCES property on each screen +specifies additional (or overriding) resources to be used for that screen. +(When there is only one screen, SCREEN_RESOURCES is normally not used, +all resources are just placed in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.) +.LP +The file specified by +.I filename +(or the contents from standard input if - or no filename is given) +is optionally passed through the C preprocessor with the +following symbols defined, based on the capabilities of the server +being used: +.TP 8 +.B SERVERHOST=\fIhostname\fP +the hostname portion of the display to which you are connected. +.TP 8 +.B SRVR_\fIname\fB +the SERVERHOST hostname string turned into a legal identifier. +For example, "my-dpy.lcs.mit.edu" becomes SRVR_my_dpy_lcs_mit_edu. +.TP 8 +.B HOST=\fIhostname\fP +the same as +.BR SERVERHOST . +.TP 8 +.B DISPLAY_NUM=\fInum\fP +the number of the display on the server host. +.TP 8 +.B CLIENTHOST=\fIhostname\fP +the name of the host on which +.I xrdb +is running. +.TP 8 +.B CLNT_\fIname\fB +the CLIENTHOST hostname string turned into a legal identifier. +For example, "expo.lcs.mit.edu" becomes CLNT_expo_lcs_mit_edu. +.TP 8 +.B RELEASE=\fInum\fP +the vendor release number for the server. The interpretation of this +number will vary depending on VENDOR. +.TP 8 +.B REVISION=\fInum\fP +the X protocol minor version supported by this server (currently 0). +.TP 8 +.B VERSION=\fInum\fP +the X protocol major version supported by this server (should always be 11). +.TP 8 +.B VENDOR="\fIvendor\fP" +a string literal specifying the vendor of the server. +.TP 8 +.B VNDR_\fIname\fP +the VENDOR name string turned into a legal identifier. +For example, "MIT X Consortium" becomes VNDR_MIT_X_Consortium. +.TP 8 +.B EXT_\fIname\fP +A symbol is defined for each protocol extension supported by the server. +Each extension string name is turned into a legal identifier. +For example, "X3D-PEX" becomes EXT_X3D_PEX. +.TP 8 +.B NUM_SCREENS=\fInum\fP +the total number of screens. +.TP 8 +.B SCREEN_NUM=\fInum\fP +the number of the current screen (from zero). +.TP 8 +.B BITS_PER_RGB=\fInum\fP +the number of significant bits in an RGB color specification. This is the +log base 2 of the number of distinct shades of each primary that the hardware +can generate. Note that it usually is not related to PLANES. +.TP 8 +.B CLASS=\fIvisualclass\fP +one of StaticGray, GrayScale, StaticColor, PseudoColor, TrueColor, +DirectColor. This is the visual class of the root window. +.TP 8 +.B CLASS_\fIvisualclass\fP=\fIvisualid\fP +the visual class of the root window in a form you can \fI#ifdef\fP on. +The value is the numeric id of the visual. +.TP 8 +.B COLOR +defined only if CLASS is one of StaticColor, PseudoColor, TrueColor, or +DirectColor. +.TP 8 +.B CLASS_\fIvisualclass\fP_\fIdepth\fP=\fInum\fP +A symbol is defined for each visual supported for the screen. +The symbol includes the class of the visual and its depth; +the value is the numeric id of the visual. +(If more than one visual has the same class and depth, the numeric id +of the first one reported by the server is used.) +.TP 8 +.B HEIGHT=\fInum\fP +the height of the root window in pixels. +.TP 8 +.B WIDTH=\fInum\fP +the width of the root window in pixels. +.TP 8 +.B PLANES=\fInum\fP +the number of bit planes (the depth) of the root window. +.TP 8 +.B X_RESOLUTION=\fInum\fP +the x resolution of the screen in pixels per meter. +.TP 8 +.B Y_RESOLUTION=\fInum\fP +the y resolution of the screen in pixels per meter. +.LP +SRVR_\fIname\fP, CLNT_\fIname\fP, VNDR_\fIname\fP, and EXT_\fIname\fP +identifiers are formed by changing all characters other than letters +and digits into underscores (_). +.LP +Lines that begin with an exclamation mark (!) are ignored and may +be used as comments. +.LP +Note that since +.I xrdb +can read from standard input, it can be used to +the change the contents of properties directly from +a terminal or from a shell script. +.SH "OPTIONS" +.PP +.I xrdb +program accepts the following options: +.TP 8 +.B \-help +This option (or any unsupported option) will cause a brief description of +the allowable options and parameters to be printed. +.TP 8 +.B \-display \fIdisplay\fP +This option specifies the X server to be used; see \fIX(__miscmansuffix__)\fP. +It also specifies the screen to use for the \fI-screen\fP option, +and it specifies the screen from which preprocessor symbols are +derived for the \fI-global\fP option. +.TP 8 +.B \-all +This option indicates that operation should be performed on the +screen-independent resource property (RESOURCE_MANAGER), as well as +the screen-specific property (SCREEN_RESOURCES) on every screen of the +display. For example, when used in conjunction with \fI-query\fP, +the contents of all properties are output. For \fI-load\fP, \fI-override\fP +and \fI-merge\fP, +the input file is processed once for each screen. The resources which occur +in common in the output for every screen are collected, and these are applied +as the screen-independent resources. The remaining resources are applied +for each individual per-screen property. This the default mode of operation. +.TP 8 +.B \-global +This option indicates that the operation should only be performed on +the screen-independent RESOURCE_MANAGER property. +.TP 8 +.B \-screen +This option indicates that the operation should only be performed on +the SCREEN_RESOURCES property of the default screen of the display. +.TP 8 +.B \-screens +This option indicates that the operation should be performed on +the SCREEN_RESOURCES property of each screen of the display. +For \fI-load\fP, \fI-override\fP and \fI-merge\fP, the input file is +processed for each screen. +.TP 8 +.B \-n +This option indicates that changes to the specified properties (when used with +\fI-load\fP, \fI-override\fP or \fI-merge\fP) +or to the resource file (when used with \fI-edit\fP) should be shown on the +standard output, but should not be performed. +.TP 8 +.B \-quiet +This option indicates that warning about duplicate entries should not be +displayed. +.TP 8 +.B -cpp \fIfilename\fP +This option specifies the pathname of the C preprocessor program to be used. +Although +.I xrdb +was designed to use CPP, any program that acts as a filter +and accepts the -D, -I, and -U options may be used. +.TP 8 +.B -nocpp +This option indicates that +.I xrdb +should not run the input file through a preprocessor before loading it +into properties. +.TP 8 +.B \-symbols +This option indicates that the symbols that are defined for the preprocessor +should be printed onto the standard output. +.TP 8 +.B \-query +This option indicates that the current contents of the specified +properties should be printed onto the standard output. Note that since +preprocessor commands in the input resource file are part of the input +file, not part of the property, they won't appear in the output from this +option. The +.B \-edit +option can be used to merge the contents of properties back into the input +resource file without damaging preprocessor commands. +.TP 8 +.B \-load +This option indicates that the input should be loaded as the new value +of the specified properties, replacing whatever was there (i.e. +the old contents are removed). This is the default action. +.TP 8 +.B \-override +This option indicates that the input should be added to, instead of +replacing, the current contents of the specified properties. +New entries override previous entries. +.TP 8 +.B \-merge +This option indicates that the input should be merged and lexicographically +sorted with, instead of replacing, the current contents of the specified +properties. +.TP 8 +.B \-remove +This option indicates that the specified properties should be removed +from the server. +.TP 8 +.B \-retain +This option indicates that the server should be instructed not to reset if +\fIxrdb\fP is the first client. This should never be necessary under normal +conditions, since \fIxdm\fP and \fIxinit\fP always act as the first client. +.TP 8 +.B \-edit \fIfilename\fP +This option indicates that the contents of the specified properties +should be edited into the given file, replacing any values already listed +there. This allows you to put changes that you have made to your defaults +back into your resource file, preserving any comments or preprocessor lines. +.TP 8 +.B \-backup \fIstring\fP +This option specifies a suffix to be appended to the filename used with +.B \-edit +to generate a backup file. +.TP 8 +.B \-D\fIname[=value]\fP +This option is passed through to the preprocessor and is used to define +symbols for use with conditionals such as +.I #ifdef. +.TP 8 +.B \-U\fIname\fP +This option is passed through to the preprocessor and is used to remove +any definitions of this symbol. +.TP 8 +.B \-I\fIdirectory\fP +This option is passed through to the preprocessor and is used to specify +a directory to search for files that are referenced with +.I #include. +.SH FILES +Generalizes \fI~/.Xdefaults\fP files. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +X(__miscmansuffix__), appres(__appmansuffix__), listres(__appmansuffix__), +Xlib Resource Manager documentation, Xt resource documentation +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.TP 8 +.B DISPLAY +to figure out which display to use. +.SH BUGS +.PP +The default for no arguments should be to query, not to overwrite, so that +it is consistent with other programs. +.SH AUTHORS +Bob Scheifler, Phil Karlton, rewritten from the original by Jim Gettys -- cgit v1.2.3
