Have not setup resources myself, just had my init file, which now in broken= . With the x-resources setup, I cannot see the text in the modeline. It may be something emacs relies on when there is no init file. But think for a moment the situation where the x-resources are not beneficial for the user for a particular program. Because I cannot see from where the x resources= =20 settings are coming from, I claimed those settings cannot be fully trusted to produce a workable emacs session. Could emacs have a set of init files users can use in cases where they encounter problems and the x resources settings are not suitable for some particular emacs feature?
