I highly recommend the X windows system administrators guide.  it looks
like you can get both books bundled at Amazon.

Reprint from Joe!

There should be a file .Xdefaults in the root directory.

/.Xdefaults

vi this file and add the following two line at the bottom:

Olitsampler*XmCascadeButton*FontList:
-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-240-*-*-*-*-*-*

Olitsampler*XmMenuShell*FontList:
-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-240-*-*-*-*-*-*

if you want this to take effect imediatly do the following

/usr/openwin/bin/xrdb -merge /.Xdefaults

then restart the Foxview session. By adding this to .Xdefaults they =
wil=3D
l
get
loaded in the next time the box is rebooted automatically.

the .Xdefaults file is per user and is located in the users home =
direct=3D
ory,
so if you want the "ia" user to have the same copy or edit the file in
/opt/ia (the "ia" users home directory.

if you do not like the font you can make modifications to the Font =
defi=3D
ned
in the two lines above
 You might be wondering about that "Olitsampler" part of the resource. =
=3D
If
you use xprop and select Foxview you will see it as one of the
"WM_CLASS(STRING)" names.  This will affect all foxview's sessions.  =
if=3D
 you
want you can change it form Olitsampler to default_dm and it will only
effect the default session.  I think you get the idea.  the second =
ques=3D
tion
you might have is why do I have two resources?  The first =
XmCascadeButt=3D
on
is
the menu across the top and the second XmMenuShell is the drop downs.  =
=3D
Now
you can have lots of fun changing the font colors and styles for =
Foxvie=3D
w.
I
figured this out by using the X Windows System's Users Guide "Motif
edition"
and looking through the widget resource stuff.  So if you want to do =

re
customization I would start there.
