> Xperform.panel.commands.PushButton.foreground: green

Should be:

	Xperform.panel.commands.XmPushButton.foreground: green

(Note the Xm...)

I'm trying to write some little programs with X (Motif widgets) but i have
problems with file .Xdefaults (or any other in app-defaults).
I created the following tree (the first line give the name i have chosen,
the second the WidgetClass):

			     (Xperform) (Created with XtInitialize)
				 |
			       panel
			      (Form)
				 |
		-----------------------------------------
		|					|
	     commands				       form
	   (RowColumn)				  (BulletinBoard)
		|					|
	--------------------			---------------------
	|		   |			|		    |
       Add		 Remove		     art_cod		 art_cod
    (PushButton)       (PushButton)	     (Label)		 (Text)

Now, if i write in the .Xdefaults

****************************************************
Xperform.panel.commands.Add.foreground: green
****************************************************

the Add push button text is rendered with green color. If i write

****************************************************
Xperform.panel.commands.PushButton.foreground: green
****************************************************

(then specifying the Class instead of the name of the widget) it doesn't
work at all (keep in mind i know that in this way all the push buttons would
be rendered with green text...). Really i could specify

****************************************************
*PushButton.foreground: green
****************************************************

to do the same thing but it doesn't work!

Waiting for any answers!

				Thanks in advance, Marco.

NOTE:
   If this can make the difference: I'm using X with SCO ODT UNIX 386 rel. 2.3.1
