XGetDefault(3X11)   X Version 11 (Release 4)    XGetDefault(3X11)



  NAME
       XGetDefault, XResourceManagerString - get X program defaults

  SYNTAX
       char *XGetDefault(display, program, option)
             Display *display;
             char *program;
             char *option;

       char *XResourceManagerString(display)
               Display *display;

  ARGUMENTS
       display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       option    Specifies the option name.

       program   Specifies the program name for the Xlib defaults
                 (usually argv[0] of the main program).

  DESCRIPTION
       The XGetDefault function returns the value NULL if the
       option name specified in this argument does not exist for
       the program.  The strings returned by XGetDefault are owned
       by Xlib and should not be modified or freed by the client.

       The XResourceManagerString returns the RESOURCE_MANAGER
       property from the server's root window of screen zero, which
       was returned when the connection was opened using
       XOpenDisplay.  Note that the property value must be in a
       format that is acceptable to XrmGetStringDatabase.
