NAME
       appres - list X application resource database

SYNOPSIS
       appres [[class [instance]] [-1] [toolkitoptions]

DESCRIPTION
       The  appres  program  prints  the resources seen by an application (or
       subhierarchy of an application) with the specified class and  instance
       names.	It can be used to determine which resources a particular pro-
       gram will load.	For example,

	    % appres  XTerm

       will list the resources that any	 xterm	program	 will  load.   If  no
       application class is specified, the class -AppResTest- is used.

       To  match a particular instance name, specify an instance name explic-
       itly after the class name, or use the normal Xt toolkit	option.	  For
       example,

	    % appres  XTerm  myxterm
       or
	    % appres  XTerm  -name  myxterm

       To list resources that match a subhierarchy of an application, specify
       hierarchical class and  instance	 names.	  The  number  of  class  and
       instance components must be equal, and the instance name should not be
       specified with a toolkit option.	 For example,

	    % appres  Xman.TopLevelShell.Form  xman.topBox.form

       will list the resources of widgets of xman topBox hierarchy.  To	 list
       just the resources matching a specific level in the hierarchy, use the
       -1 option.  For example,

	    % appres  XTerm.VT100  xterm.vt100	-1

       will list the resources matching the xterm vt100 widget.
