System name:		M11-113-4
Type and version:	MVAX-II 7.1H
Display type:		PLX

What were you trying to do?
	set the cursor color for my emacs in my .Xresources

What's wrong:
	the man page for emacs says that the resource is CursorColor
	I had the following in my .Xresources :

	emacs*CursorColor:	#fbe

	This did not work.

What should have happened:
	it should have been cursorColor
	the line 

	emacs*cursorColor:	#fbe

	*did* work.  

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	emacs man page
	(a man page should not give erroneous information)
