=>Hello all,
=>
=>In FC4 I used the Xresources file to include the customizations for
=>Nedit.  In my new FC5 installation I tried to do the same, but they seem
=>to be ignored.  Are the Xresources and Xdefaults files handled the same
=>way as previously, or am I missing something real obvious?
=>
=>Thanks,

=>Herb Smith

One thing that you might be missing is that the classname for nedit is not 
Nedit. It's NEdit. I just checked it using editres.

Personally I much prefer not using Xdefaults and Xresources. I much prefer 
to user XFILESEARCHPATH and XUSERFILESEARCHPATH.
