Hi all,
I've been having some very odd errors related to attempting to
customize my environment with an .Xresources file. I'm running X11
beta 3 with the developer SDK on Mac OS 10.2.6.
I've added some basic customizations to my ~/.Xresource file such as:
xterm*saveLines: 10000
xterm*scrollBar: true
xterm*rightScrollBar: true
xterm*jumpScroll: true
xterm*Background: black
xterm*Foreground: gray70
which I load in my ~/.xinitrc with the xrdb -merge command.
All seems to go well at startup except for the fact that none of my
customizations occur. Then, when I launch an xterm from a shell, these
errors are spit out to stderr.
Does "xrdb -query" show that the resources were loaded correctly?

What editor did you use? Could it be that the file was saved with the
wrong type of newlines? Maybe it has some character other than spaces
or tabs between the colons and parameters. This needs to be a straight
text file.
