# Description: This script traces down what X and the
# XTerm are doing. I used that script for finding out, where
# my XTerm reads the LightYellow2 string from :)
#

# used for the xterm
DISPLAY=":0.0"

# What is the name of your X binary ?
X_BIN="XFree86"

# where to write data
X_OUT=/tmp/xerrorn.`whoami`
XTERM_OUT=/tmp/xerrorn-xterm.`whoami`
