  properties

SYNOPSIS
  char *XResourceManagerString(display)
	  Display *display;

  char *XScreenResourceString(screen)
	  Screen *screen;

ARGUMENTS

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.
