NAME
appres - list X application resource database
SYNOPSIS
appres [class [instance]] [-1] [-V] [toolkitoptions]
DESCRIPTION
The appres program prints the resources seen by an application (or sub-
hierarchy of an application) with the specified class and instance
names. It can be used to determine which resources a particular pro-
gram will load. For example,
% appres XTerm
will list the resources that any xterm program will load. If no appli-
cation class is specified, the class -AppResTest- is used.
To match a particular instance name, specify an instance name explic-
itly after the class name, or use the normal Xt toolkit option. For
example,
% appres XTerm myxterm
or
% appres XTerm -name myxterm
To list resources that match a subhierarchy of an application, specify
hierarchical class and instance names. The number of class and in-
stance components must be equal, and the instance name should not be
specified with a toolkit option. For example,
% appres Xman.TopLevelShell.Form xman.topBox.form
will list the resources of widgets of xman topBox hierarchy. To list
just the resources matching a specific level in the hierarchy, use the
-1 option. For example,
% appres XTerm.VT100 xterm.vt100 -1
will list the resources matching the xterm vt100 widget.
The -V option prints the appres command version and exits.
