NAME

       XResourceManagerString, XScreenResourceString - obtain server resource
       properties

SYNTAX

       char *XResourceManagerString(Display *display);

       char *XScreenResourceString(Screen *screen);

ARGUMENTS

       display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       screen    Specifies the screen.

DESCRIPTION

       The XResourceManagerString function returns the RESOURCE_MANAGER
       property from the server’s root window of screen zero, which was
       returned when the connection was opened using XOpenDisplay.  The
       property is converted from type STRING to the current locale.  The
       conversion is identical to that produced by XmbTextPropertyToTextList
       for a single element STRING property.  The returned string is owned by
       Xlib and should not be freed by the client.  The property value must be
       in a format that is acceptable to XrmGetStringDatabase.  If no property
       exists, NULL is returned.

       The XScreenResourceString function returns the SCREEN_RESOURCES
       property from the root window of the specified screen.  The property is
       converted from type STRING to the current locale.  The conversion is
       identical to that produced by XmbTextPropertyToTextList for a single
       element STRING property.  The property value must be in a format that
       is acceptable to XrmGetStringDatabase.  If no property exists, NULL is
       returned.  The caller is responsible for freeing the returned string by
       using XFree.
