I'm trying to put some customized bitmap in icons like
xterm, xman, etc.
So I created a bitmap representing an xterm (oh well, sometime
you can think it is an xterm... :-) and I put it in
~/.bitmap/ICONS/xterm. Then I added these lines to .Xdefaults:
Mwm*bitmapDirectory: /lusr/tutor/montrasio/.bitmap/
Mwm*Xterm.iconImage: ICONS/xterm
I performed xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults and I restarted mwm.
Results: none! :-(
Mwm still uses the default bitmap...
Time ago a friend of mine tried to do the same thingh (I don't
know the details), with the same discouraging result.
Can anybody help?
Thank you.

Two suggestions: 1. The class name for xterm is XTerm, not Xterm 2. Try using a loose binding (*) between the XTerm and iconImage. From my resource file:- ! xterm ! Mwm*XTerm*iconImage: terminal Stephen. -- | Stephen Shortland, | Motorola Ireland Ltd, | | | | Mahon Industrial Estate, | | | Phone +353-21-357101 | Blackrock, Cork, | ..uunet!motcid!sland | | Fax. +353-21-357635 | IRELAND. | |
