In the directory ~/.Xresources/ you have the same files like in
/etc/X11/app-defaults while in the file ~/.Xresources you must
write all together and must be carefull if you use wildcard like

    *label: Deboo

Put it into the FILE ~/.Xresources and start "xfontsel", "xman" and
"editres".

Now delete it and put it into a file ~/.Xresources/editres and
~/.Xresources/editres-color

Run again "xfontsel", "xman" and "editres".

You can try it out and you will be surprised...

This, why I have heavy problems writing themes for xbase-clients and
l10n stuff:

YOU CAN NOT USE WILDCARDS and IF YOU USE IT, YOU SHOULD KNOW, WHAT YOU DO!
