NAME
     XrmInitialize, XrmParseCommand - initialize the Resource Manager and
     parse the command line

SYNTAX
     void XrmInitialize();

     void XrmParseCommand(database, table, table_count, name, argc_in_out,
     argv_in_out,)
           XrmDatabase *database;
           XrmOptionDescList table;
           int table_count;
           char *name;
           int *argc_in_out;
           char **argv_in_out;

ARGUMENTS
     argc_in_out
               Specifies the number of arguments and returns the number of
               remaining arguments.

     argv_in_out
               Specifies a pointer to the command line arguments and returns
               the remaining arguments.

     database  Specifies a pointer to the resource database.

     name      Specifies the application name.

     table     Specifies the table of command line arguments to be parsed.

     table_count
               Specifies the number of entries in the table.

DESCRIPTION
     The XrmInitialize function initialize the resource manager.

     The XrmParseCommand function parses an (argc, argv) pair according to the
     specified option table, loads recognized options into the specified
     database with type ``String,'' and modifies the (argc, argv) pair to
     remove all recognized options.

     The specified table is used to parse the command line.  Recognized
     entries in the table are removed from argv, and entries are made in the
     specified resource database.  The table entries contain information on
     the option string, the option name, the style of option, and a value to
     provide if the option kind is XrmoptionNoArg.  The argc argument
     specifies the number of arguments in argv and is set to the remaining
     number of arguments that were not parsed.  The name argument should be
     the name of your application for use in building the database entry.  The
     name argument is prefixed to the resourceName in the option table before
     storing the specification.  No separating (binding) character is
     inserted.  The table must contain either a period (.) or an asterisk (*)
     as the first character in each resourceName entry.  To specify a more
     completely qualified resource name, the resourceName entry can contain
     multiple components.
