This element is optional (can be substituated with wildcard). restriction Class names or name of specific class instance. The classes names conventionally start with an upper-case letter. resource The name of the resource whose value is to be changed. Resources are typically lowercase with uppercase concatenation. value The actual value of the resource. delimiters A period (.) is used to signify each step down into the hierarchy. A colon (:) is used to separate the resource declaration from the actual value.Comment start with '!' char and goes up to end of line or C-like /* */.Use xprop utility to find classes and resources used by application.To reread your .Xresources file, and throw away your old resources: $ xrdb ~/.XdefaultsTo reread your .Xresources file, and keep your old resources: $ xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults** Example. *foreground: yellow XClock*foreground: pink Xman*topBox*foreground: blue** Value types.*** String.This can be path specification like '/usr/bin/firefox'.*** Colors.For color names see '/usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt'. Also you can use hexrepresentation #ffffff.*** Font.You can use either a full name, a wildcarded specification, or a font alias.
