Widget Resources

In Motif jargon, resources are variables shared between widgets and the application. Their default values permit a common look and feel across applications. They are also used to communicate information between the application and the interface.

Tm resource names follow the usual Motif naming with a leading dash replacing the XmN prefix. For example, -font replaces XmNfont. Tm constants are specified by their Motif name, without the Xm_ prefix, either in upper or lower case.

The section "Resources" describes resource concepts, and default value types. The section "Base Classes" describes resources common to many widgets.
