Xdefaults

[Stephen Adler]

What's the correct method of setting up your environment using the 
.Xdefaults like file. the reason I ask is that for a long time I've put 
all my emacs* configuration settings in an .Xdefults file in my home 
directory, all was good. But now, my .Xdefaults file is being ignored 
when I log in. What's the new .Xdefaults file where I should put all my 
X11 configuration settings?

Thanks in advance. Steve.
