resource properties
SYNTAX
char *XResourceManagerString(display)
Display *display;
char *XScreenResourceString(screen)
Screen *screen;
ARGUMENTS
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
screen Specifies the screen.
DESCRIPTION
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. The property is converted
from type STRING to the current locale. The conversion is identical
to that produced by XmbTextPropertyToTextList for a singleton STRING
property. The returned string is owned by Xlib, and should not be
freed by the client. Note that the property value must be in a
format that is acceptable to XrmGetStringDatabase. If no property
exists, NULL is returned.
The XStringResourceString returns the SCREEN_RESOURCES property from
the root window of the specified screen. The property is converted
from type STRING to the current locale. The conversion is identical
to that produced by XmbTextPropertyToTextList for a singleton STRING
property. Note that the property value must be in a format that is
acceptable to XrmGetStringDatabase. If no property exists, NULL is
returned. The caller is responsible for freeing the returned string,
using XFree.
