No, no one was expecting anything different; this is just the way X

That said, exactly what file to create is system-dependent. .Xresources
and .Xmodmap seem to have become some sort of a standard, but

The 'net used to be run by smart people; now many sites are run by
idiots. So SAD... (Sites that does spam filtering on mails sent to the
abuse contact need to be cut off the net...)
