[comp.windows.x] twm bitmap file path

pannaiya@NMSU.EDU (01/11/90)

The documentation for twm says that twm looks up a resource called
bitmapFilePath to determine the icon directories.  How does one
set this resource.  It does not accept it as a command line option
nor in the .Xdefaults file.

You would typically set it in the resources that get loaded into the 
server with xrdb.  For example, if your resources file were called .Xres:

	%  cat >>.Xres
	bitmapFilePath:  /users/jim/icons:/x/include/bitmaps
	^D
	%  xrdb -load .Xres
