[comp.windows.x] Question about X resources and Environment variables

wex@dali.pws.bull.com (Buckaroo Banzai) (10/26/90)

I would like to know if there is any way to use the value of an environment
variable in an X client's resources or defaults.  I'd like to be able to set
the variable, then invoke the client and have it behave one way, then change
the environment variable, invoke the client again and have it behave another
way.  My current readings seem to indicate that the answer is no, but I
thought I'd ask anyway.

Please *email* me the answer.  I will post a summary if anyone comes up with
a workable solution.
