Emacs compiled for Windows looks for X resources in the Windows
Registry, under the key @samp{HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\GNU\Emacs}
and then under the key @samp{HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GNU\Emacs}.
+The menu and scrollbars are native widgets on MS-Windows, so they are
+only customizable via the system-wide settings in the Display Control
+Panel.
Programs define named resources with particular meanings. They also
define how to group resources into named classes. For instance, in
@samp{Show Resource Box} from the @samp{Commands} menu. This displays
a list of all the meaningful X resources and allows you to edit them.
Changes take effect immediately if you click on the @samp{Apply} button.
+(See the @code{editres} man page for more details.)
@node Table of Resources
@appendixsec Table of X Resources for Emacs
Additional space (@dfn{leading}) between lines, in pixels.
@item @code{menuBar} (class @code{MenuBar})
+@cindex menu bar
Give frames menu bars if @samp{on}; don't have menu bars if
@samp{off}. @xref{Lucid Resources}, and @ref{LessTif Resources}, for
how to control the appearance of the menu bar if you have one.
Name to display in the title bar of the initial Emacs frame.
@item @code{toolBar} (class @code{ToolBar})
+@cindex tool bar
Number of lines to reserve for the tool bar. A zero value suppresses
the tool bar. If the value is non-zero and
@code{auto-resize-tool-bars} is non-@code{nil}, the tool bar's size
will be changed automatically so that all tool bar items are visible.
+@item @code{useXIM} (class @code{UseXIM})
+@cindex XIM
+@cindex X input methods
+@cindex input methods, X
+Turn off use of X input methods (XIM) if @samp{false} or @samp{off}.
+This is only relevant if your Emacs is actually built with XIM
+support. It is potentially useful to turn off XIM for efficiency,
+especially slow X client/server links.
+
@item @code{verticalScrollBars} (class @code{ScrollBars})
Give frames scroll bars if @samp{on}; don't have scroll bars if
@samp{off}.
@item horizontalSpacing
Horizontal spacing in pixels between items. Default is 3.
@item verticalSpacing
-Vertical spacing in pixels between items. Default is 1.
+Vertical spacing in pixels between items. Default is 2.
@item arrowSpacing
Horizontal spacing between the arrow (which indicates a submenu) and
the associated text. Default is 10.
@item shadowThickness
-Thickness of shadow line around the widget.
+Thickness of shadow line around the widget. Default is 1.
+
+Also determines the thickness of shadow lines around other objects,
+for instance 3D buttons and arrows. If you have the impression that
+the arrows in the menus do not stand out clearly enough or that the
+difference between ``in'' and ``out'' buttons is difficult to see, set
+this to 2. If you have no problems with visibility, the default
+probably looks better. The background color may also have some effect
+on the contrast.
@item margin
-The margin of the menu bar, in characters. The default of 4 makes the
-menu bar appear like the LessTif/Motif one.
+The margin of the menu bar, in characters. Default is 1.
