I think it's the Xserver. X-windows handling of resource files seems badly
messed up IMHO. I'm not an X programmer, but reading the manuals implies
that you need to jump through about four hoops to get the resources read in.
One hoop should be enough :-)
The best way is to try it - install the program and run it. Then edit the
resources file and re-run it.
