man emacs on m11-113-11:
You can set X default values for your Emacs windows in your
.Xdefaults file. Use the following format:
emacs.keyword:value
where value specifies the default value of keyword. Emacs
lets you set default values for the following keywords:
:
:
:
Cursor For color displays, sets the color of the window's
text cursor. See the file /usr/lib/rgb.txt for a
list of valid color names.
Mouse For color displays, sets the color of the window's
mouse cursor. See the file /usr/lib/rgb.txt for a
list of valid color names.
Which emacs was I looking at? According to my MANPATH, /mit/gnu/man
comes before /usr/athena/man, so I was reading from
/mit/gnu/man/man1/emacs.1. Is the emacs on athena 'athenized' too so
that it's different from GNU's?
