-xrm command-line option

The -xrm command-line option allows an individual resource (setting) to be changed.

In x3270, this is a standard Xt command-line option.

Syntax
The syntax of an -xrm option is identical to a single line of a session file -- excepting, of course, comments lines and multi-line definitions.

Examples
Define the blankFill resource to true. -xrm "*blankFill: true" Define blankFill for wc3270 to true. -xrm "wc3270.blankFill: true" Define a wc3270 traceDir resource. Note that backslashes in Windows pathnames must be doubled. -xrm "wc3270.traceDir: C:\\Users\\Bob\\Trace Files"
