+;;; Commentary:
;; X-win.el: this file is loaded from ../lisp/startup.el when it recognizes
;; that X windows are to be used. Command line switches are parsed and those
;; startup.el will then examine startup files, and eventually call the hooks
;; which create the first window (s).
+
+;;; Code:
\f
;; These are the standard X switches from the Xt Initialize.c file of
;; Release 4.
;; -font *font
;; -foreground *foreground
;; -geometry .geometry
+;; -i .iconType
+;; -itype .iconType
;; -iconic .iconic
;; -name .name
;; -reverse *reverseVideo
;; ../startup.el.
