I had to write similiar support for Epoch, and the code should be easy to
use. Look in xdefault.c and xd.h in the distribution. If you don't have
Epoch, I'd be happy to send the source by email. It supports a general
default handler, for which adding extra options involves defining a
structure member to hold the value, and adding a line to a structure
array definition.
