System name:		lycus
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.2K
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	view the 7.2 release notes.

What's wrong:
	It ignores my reverse video X resources.  Here's what I have
set:
% xrdb -q |grep -i video
*ReverseVideo:  on
xfish*ReverseVideo:     off
zwgc*reverseVideo:      off

viewscribe comes up with the text in black, the background in white, and
the buttons in black boxes with white text.

Even when I type 'viewscribe -rv' (as the man page indicates) it still
comes up wrong.  When I use 'viewscribe +rv' the buttons come out with
white background and black text (like the rest of the page).

What should have happened:
	It should all be reverse video.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	viewscribe(1), xrdb(1)
